Hundreds of local kids in foster care don’t have the supplies they need to succeed in school. That’s why Appliance Center is teaming up with Buckeye Broadband to fill 750 backpacks with school supplies for kids receiving help from Lucas County Children Services.
On Wednesday, July 27, Appliance Center is hosting a school supply drive-thru/drop-off event at our Maumee Superstore. Drive Thru Times are 11am-1pm & 4-7pm. Food Trucks and Live music will also be on hand from 4-7 pm. Our Maumee Superstore is located at 321 Illinois Avenue in Maumee, Ohio.
You can also drop off school supplies at our Maumee and Sylvania Superstores from July 11-26. Donation bins are located next to the customer service desk. Everyone 18+ who drops off supplies will be entered in a prize drawing.
