CBP cautions consumers and merchants about unsafe school supplies. #NewsismyBusiness
Some 2,500 school supplies were delivered by DDR Puerto Rico to the Boys & Girls Club of Puerto Rico, an entity that provides services to children ages 6 to 18 years old for their academic leadership development and recreation.
DDR Corp., a company that owns several shopping malls throughout Puerto Rico, on Monday invited the public to join its community effort “Say Present on Back-to-School,” which seeks to donate school supplies to Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico.
DDR Corp., owner and manager of 15 shopping centers in Puerto Rico, is inviting the general public to join its community effort, "This Back to School, Say Present,” which aims to collect and donate school supplies to several nonprofit organizations that need materials for school children under their care.
About 3,000 school supplies were delivered by DDR’s Puerto Rico shopping centers to six nonprofit organizations that provide services to children and youth of school age.
More than 90 percent of teachers spend their own money on basic school supplies for their students, according to a recent survey, so this week OfficeMax, its back-to-school shoppers and business customers, donated nearly $1.9 million in school supplies to teachers.
