Hundreds of Pittsburgh kids just scored free backpacks, thanks to a major giveaway from Verizon’s Round Room stores. The Swissvale location even threw in face painting, turning a simple school supply pickup into a mini celebration. With $3 million in backpacks handed out nationwide, this event is one of the biggest ways local families are getting a little extra help before school starts. It’s not every day you see companies step up like this—what do you think about businesses pitching in for back-to-school season? Have you or your neighbors benefited from similar community events? #Safety #Pittsburgh #BackToSchool
