Avery Gives Back to Schools

TORONTO, ONTARIO -June 6, 2016 – Avery Products Canada is providing students with complimentary Avery school supplies for the 2016/17 school year through the #AveryGivesBack campaign launching on June 6th. In Partnership with The Michael “Pinball” Clemons Foundation (MPCF) and young change maker Hannah Alper, 7,500 school supply kits will be delivered to students across the MPCF network of schools in need.

“Avery Products Canada is pleased to be working with MPCF on this great program to give back to Canadian schools and communities. At Avery we truly believe in caring and supporting each other so this program is a natural extension of what we do every day,” says Lynn Livesey, General Manager of Avery Canada.

Deliveries were made between June 6th - June 29th to students across Canada including schools within MPCF networks. Aligned with MPCF founding principle of empowering youth and inspiring dreams, Avery Product Canada’s #AveryGivesBack campaign is aiming to prepare students for the upcoming school year with the tools they need such as Binder, dividers, highlights and tabs.

To celebrate these contributions, Michael “Pinball” Clemons and Hannah Alper captured their contribution of kitting and delivery of these kits through video to spread awareness of giving back to your communities through social media during the back to school season in hopes to inspire others. To further give back, Avery will be donating $1 for every video “share” up to $5,000 to the Michael “Pinball” Clemons Foundation.

Join the give back movement with Avery Products Canada at #AveryGivesBack. The videos will be available to view through Avery Products Canada’s social channels and on July 25th at www.avery.ca
