Backpack Giveaway at Verizon-Cellular Plus in Salmon Creek

Verizon-Cellular Plus, 12914 N.E. Highway 99 in Salmon Creek, will give away free backpacks filled with school supplies from 10 a.m. to noon July 29. The Verizon-Cellular Plus Backpack to School program also incorporates contributions from employees, customers and vendor partners. An internal employee donation program was organized, and stores are also accepting donations from their guests to help as many families as possible. Donations stay local so each backpack that is donated at a specific location will be distributed to children in that same area. No purchase is necessary to receive a backpack, but a child must be present with an adult to claim the backpack.
