Verizon Authorized Retailers to Hold Supply
Drives, Pet Adoption Events Across the U.S. in May
FISHERS,
Ind., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Committed to
strengthening communities across the nation, Round Room, LLC – one
of the nation's largest Verizon Authorized Retailers – announced
majority of its TCC and Wireless Zone retail locations will
participate in the company's third annual Rescues Rock initiative
to support local animal rescue organizations. The program kicks off
on May 1 with a month-long supply
drive, followed by on-site pet adoption events on May 11 and the ultimate gifting of a $10,000 grant to an animal rescue
organization.
How to Participate:
- DONATE PET SUPPLIES – From Wednesday, May 1 to Friday, May 31, participating TCC and
Wireless Zone stores across the country will accept items to donate
to local rescue organizations, including gently used towels and
blankets, cat and dog toys, treats, collars and leashes, pet beds,
etc. Donations will start to be delivered on Saturday, June 1, with the goal of improving the
quality of life for furry friends looking for their forever
homes.
- ATTEND A PET ADOPTION – All participating locations
will host on-site pet adoption events starting at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 11. In partnership
with local shelters of their choice, stores will have cats and dogs
available for adoption, along with free adoption kits, while
supplies last.
About 6.3 million animals enter shelters every year, but only
two-thirds are adopted annually. Round Room is committed to making
a meaningful impact through its Rescues Rock initiative to raise
awareness on the importance and need for animal adoption, and
support shelters in finding loving homes for these animals. Those
interested in attending the adoption event can find the closest
participating store on the TCC and Wireless Zone websites.
"Empowering local organizations in the communities we serve is
not just a responsibility, but a privilege," said Scott
Moorehead, CEO of Round Room. "With so many TCC and Wireless
Zone employees deeply invested in animal welfare, we chose to
support pet rescues as one of our annual community giveback events.
We will remain committed to supporting these crucial efforts until
every pet has a loving home."
To round out the Rescues Rock initiative, TCC and Wireless Zone
will be awarding one animal rescue organization a $10,000 grant to use on immediate animal medical
needs. More information about the six finalists can be found
here and here, and the winning rescue will be announced on
Saturday, May 11.
Rescues Rock is the second of four quarterly community events
Round Room will conduct in 2024 to give back to and strengthen its
store's communities – one of the company's core principles. Earlier
this year, Round Room held "Teachers Rock" to give back to
teachers. In July, Round Room organizes "School Rocks" to help
students prepare for school, followed by "Rock the Pantry" in
November, an event that is all about fighting food insecurity.
"As a company, Round Room is deeply committed to giving back and
supporting our local communities," Moorehead noted. "We always
strive to serve our employees, customers, and communities in the
best way possible."
