Indianapolis Colts and American Family Insurance partner to bring School Uniform Blitz shopping experience to local school

The Indianapolis Colts kicked off the regular season and "Colts Community Tuesdays" by partnering with American Family Insurance for the Colts School Uniform Blitz at Eastbrook Elementary School in northwest Indianapolis on Tuesday, September 10.

Colts players, along with American Family agency owners and sales leadership representatives, helped more than 550 Eastbrook students go on a "shopping experience" in the school gym, where kids picked out their own outfit, provided by the Colts and American Family Insurance.

Each student received a short-sleeve polo shirt, short-sleeve shirt, a fleece crewneck, pants, socks, fanny packs, pencil pouch, water bottle and a toiletry kit, helping eliminate school clothing as a barrier to students attending and staying in school.

The event also included a book fair, where students were given an opportunity to pick two free Scholastic books.
