Detroit-area McDonald’s restaurant owners will celebrate the back to school season Monday, Aug. 1 through Tuesday, Aug. 9 by randomly giving away 1,900 McDonald’s-branded backpacks filled with school supplies during the 2nd annual Get Backpackin’ to School sweepstakes.
The McDonald’s Get BackPackin’ to School sweepstakes offers customers the chance to win a McDonald’s-branded backpack by simply visiting one of 19 participating Detroit-area McDonald’s restaurants during the sweepstakes period. Each backpack will include a spiral notebook, crayons, a ruler, #2 pencils as well as other supplies so children can return to school with the tools to help them succeed in class.
“My fellow McDonald’s restaurant owners and I have doubled down on our efforts to support local youth and education this year by giving away twice as many backpacks at each participating location,” said Jon Campbell, McDonald’s restaurant owner. “We are excited to reach more children and families through the expansion of this meaningful program.”
