Children line up to get backpacks and play games at community event

Towne Storage Contributes Back-to-School Backpacks and Supplies at Community Event

|

A community came together last week thanks to the caring staff at the Cottonwood Apartments in Herriman, Utah. Eight companies participated by providing needed back-to-school supplies to hundreds of children during an evening filled with treats, games, gratitude, and fun. 

Towne Storage was there to support the event by providing dozens of backpacks filled with school supplies. "Overall, there were a couple hundred backpacks to give away with just as many kids showing up to get one," says Jenn Kabeary, the site manager of Towne Storage's Riverton 12600 location. "It was so neat to see each child's eyes light up when it was their turn to pick out a backpack," she says. "There were so many awesome ones to choose from."

Along with Towne Storage, several other companies came together to contribute backpacks of their own -plus school supplies and other treats. "There was also free medical care and haircuts given to any kid that showed up," Kabeary explains. 

In addition to the backpacks provided, Towne Storage had a booth with a ring toss game that the children could play to win treat bags full of candy and toys. "The kids loved it and wanted to keep playing even after we ran out of prizes," Kabeary says. 

She praises the Cottonwood Apartments staff for organizing such a well-attended and successful event. "I love how they went all out to give the kids a memorable day."
