Sleep America and The Salvation Army Team Up for the "Backpack for Kids" Promotion
RSS
August 1, 2010

Sleep America is proud to partner with The Salvation Army for their second annual "Backpack For Kids" promotion.  Sleep America store locations throughout the state will be serving as drop off locations for the school supplies from July 1 -August 1, 2010.

All students should have the necessary materials to be successful in school. Just in time for the beginning of the school year, Valley residents will be able to drop off supplies to their nearest Sleep America location. Items being requested include but are not limited to backpacks, non toxic markers and crayons, glue, pencils, erasers, notebooks, highlighters, scissors, and tape.

            The supplies will be distributed to schools with a high percentage of children on free and reduced lunch.  Now more than ever, more students will be in need of supplies. In October of 2008, over 2 million children statewide qualified for free and reduced lunch.

Sleep America is the largest mattress retailer in Arizona. Founded in 1997 Sleep America has over 150 employees and 42 store locations statewide. This year Sleep America proudly celebrates thirteen successful years in business. For the Sleep America store nearest you call 1-888-94-SLEEP. For more information go to www.sleepamerica.com.
