More free backpacks filled with supplies will be given away to Alexander City children.
This weekend, residents will want to be sure to be at Verizon Wireless — operated by Round Room, LLC. — as Round Room's TCC and Wireless Zone stores are donating 140,000 backpacks full of school supplies during the eighth annual School Rocks Backpack Giveaway.
