Sweet deal for students at Staples

By Brock Weir

Staples and the Optimist Club of Aurora are helping you gear up for the new school year with a special evening this Wednesday, August 21.
The Optimists will be at the Aurora Staples location at Yonge Street and Murray Drive, from 6 – 8 p.m. to boost Staples' annual School Supply Drive, collecting both supplies and money for supplies to help low income families.
All cash and supplies collected during the initiative will be donated directly to the Optimist Club for distribution.
To sweeten the deal, Dairy Queen will also be on hand to hand out ice cream coupons for their Yonge and Edward location to everyone who comes in to make a donation.
“Although Aurora is a wealthy community, there are people who are well off and there are people who are struggling,” said Kevin Elliston of Staples Aurora. “If you are one of those in need of help, please don't think you can't talk to the Optimist Club. That's what they are here for.”
For more information on the initiative, contact Staples at 905-713-0367 or the Optimists at 416-315-7368.
