    TCC Eden Prairie hosts School Rocks Backpack Giveaway

    TCC Eden Prairie, an authorized Verizon retailer, will be taking part in the national School Rocks Backpack Giveaway on Sunday, July 30.

    Starting at 1 p.m., while supplies last, local families may visit the retailer to pick up a backpack filled with pencils, paper, a pencil box, folders, a ruler, and glue. One backpack per child present will be given away on a first-come, first-served basis. Any leftover backpacks at the School Rocks Backpack Giveaway event will be donated to local schools of the store’s choice.
