Pioneers Donating Backpacks to Students

Today AT&T Michigan’s “Pioneer” organization will be on hand at the Literacy Academy at Cleveland Elementary School in Port Huron donating 79 backpacks filled with school supplies to students. The event begins at 10 a.m. and schools along with government officials will be present. The AT&T Michigan Pioneers have participated in the backpack donation program for 20 years throughout the state. David Lewis, President of AT&T Michigan said, “The AT&T Michigan Pioneers consist of company employees and retirees who go above and beyond to better communities across the state of Michigan.” He added that AT&T is “proud to provide these much-needed school supplies to the students and bring this initiative to Port Huron.” This fall, the company will distribute nearly 2,500 backpacks in the state of Michigan.
