SPOKANE, Wash. – For the 15th year in a row, NomNom convenience store is working with The Salvation Army Spokane for ‘Backpacks for Kids,” to give free school supplies and backpacks to 4,000 local K-12 students.

Between now and June 30, NomNom is collecting funds at local stores. If you donate, you will receive a coupon for a free 20 oz. soda or coffee.

You can donate through the pin pad when you make your purchase, or by adding your name to a special flyer that will be displayed in the stores.

Over the past 14 years, NomNom has helped The Salvation Army Spokane raise $600,000 for ‘Backpacks for kids.’

Since the first year in 2010, The Salvation Army Spokane has distributed 57,000 backpacks to local young people. This year’s event will be free to attend on August 14th at The Salvation Army, 222 E. Indiana Avenue in Spokane.
