Jul. 25—Cellular Plus in Westminster is giving out free backpacks stuffed with school supplies on Saturday.

The Verizon-Cellular Plus Backpack to School program collects backpack and supply donations from employees and store guests. The donations remain local, and the backpacks are distributed in the same area they were donated, a news release from Verizon-Cellular Plus reads.

"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," Cellular Plus President Adam Kimmet stated in the release. "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."

Backpacks will be distributed from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at Cellular Plus, 10398 Reed St.. Suite #300 while supplies last. No purchase is necessary to receive a backpack, though a child must be present with an adult to claim a backpack.
