TOWSON, MD (August 30, 2017) – While no one is ready to think summer is over quite yet, the reality is that the remainder of Maryland students will be heading back to school next week.  In an effort to help local schools, AAA Mid-Atlantic is collecting school supplies through September 16 at over 60 retail and car care centers throughout the club’s territory, including nine Maryland locations.  

The campaign, “Building Blocks to Support Our Future Members,” encourages AAA members and the general public, as well as AAA associates, to donate new, unused school supplies.

“The local schools supported by the collection drive are chosen by AAA associates, and after the donations are collected, AAA associates will deliver the supplies to their chosen school,” says Christine Sarames Delise, a spokeswoman for AAA Mid-Atlantic. “The auto club aims to help ensure students have what they need for school, which takes pressure off children and families and gets the school year started right.”

AAA members and the general public are invited to participate by bringing new and unwrapped school supplies to the following AAA locations in Maryland:
