AAA collects, donates school supplies to help students in Troy, Trotwood

In an effort to help local schools, AAA collected school supplies at all AAA locations, including its Retail and Car Care Centers in Dayton and Troy.

The local schools supported by the collection drive are chosen by AAA associates and included Heywood Elementary and Trotwood-Madison Local Schools.

“AAA cares deeply about the communities in which we live and serve,” AAA senior specialist Kara Hitchens said. “The school supply drive aims to ensure that students and teachers have what they need when they get to school, which takes pressure off children and families and gets the school year off to a great start.”

The campaign encouraged AAA associates, members and the public to donate new, unused school supplies.
