We’re rounding up our gratitude for @staples and their Back-to-School Round-Up Campaign! 🎒✏️

All four Staples stores in Nevada participated, gifting $2,601.32 to Junior Achievement of Nevada to help prepare students for success in the classroom, their careers, and beyond! 💙

And there’s an extra-special connection to celebrate: one of the Reno stores had an employee who is a 50-year Junior Achievement alum! Talk about a full-circle moment! 🙌 From learning with JA to giving back to the next generation, that’s what making an impact looks like.

Thank you, Staples, for rounding up support for Nevada students and helping us build a brighter future, one student at a time! taken in Staples by @jaofnevada
