Vancouver, Wash. –The Police Activities League of SW Washington (PAL) is proud to announce the receipt of a grant totaling $6,450 from local Vancouver 7-Eleven stores. Locally, 7-Eleven has supported PAL programs, donating in-kind items for PAL youth, and has also partnered each year with the Vancouver Police Department to bring Operation Chill to Vancouver every summer! Operation Chill places free Slurpee certificates in the hands of police officers to give to youth throughout the summer.

“Our stores are part of these neighborhoods, and as such, we wanted to be good neighbors to the community we serve. This Project A Game grant lets us play a part in local kids success, and we can’t think of a better way to give back”, said Melissa Dickson Asset Protection Specialist North Pacific Zone - 7-Eleven, Inc.

There will be a check presentation from 7-Eleven to PAL at the PAL literacy event:

Date: Thursday November, 14, 2019

Time: 2pm

Location:  Fruit Valley Elementary School (3410 NW Fruit Valley Rd.)

Members of the media are invited to attend.
