President Adam Kimmet said:
"We are thrilled to be able to give back to our local community and help students kick off the school year with a brand-new backpack. Our goal is to help make it a little easier for families to get these essential supplies so that students can start off the school year prepared and confident."
Christie Nelson, store manager for Cellular Plus on 2nd street, said each backpack is about $8, and to date they have received around $250 in donations, which is lower than they usually get.
The backpacks are filled with a variety of school supplies for people K-12, from notebook to pens to pencils to crayons to glue sticks to folders to erasers to pencil cases.
