A Step Ahead Pierce County receives $1,000 from local retailer

Graham, WA – TCC, one of the nation’s largest Verizon authorized retailers, announces today a $1,000 donation to A Step Ahead Pierce County (ASAPC) in Puyallup, Washington, to celebrate the Graham store’s reopening. This location is open to customers at 22205 Meridian Ave. E Ste B-2, and ASAPC was chosen to receive its donation by the local TCC store team.

In a continued effort to give back to its operating communities, TCC is providing donations to local nonprofits for each store opening, reopening and relocation in 2021. Each TCC store continues to follow CDC recommendations and state guidelines surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, prioritizing customer and employee safety with each store opening.

“At the core of our business is a desire and passion to give back to our communities, and we are excited to celebrate our Graham store’s reopening by giving back to an integral nonprofit in its community,” said Scott Moorehead, CEO of Round Room, parent company of TCC. “A Step Ahead’s dedication to children in need is a true inspiration, and we are proud to assist them in their work to better the community.”

ASAPC supports young children with developmental delays or disabilities through enhancing and developing their at-home and community relationships. The organization provides convenient home-based and virtual therapy and educational services including speech, physical and occupational therapies, and special education for its children.

"I want to thank our friends at TCC in Graham from the bottom of my heart for donating $1,000 to A Step Ahead in Pierce County,” said David Pozolinski, executive director of ASAPC. “Our nonprofit organization works with children from birth to three years of age with developmental challenges. This donation will enable us to provide needed additional assistance to the families we serve during these unpredictable times.”

TCC is a Culture of Good, Inc. company and makes ongoing investments in the local communities where it operates. The company recently donated more than 140,000 backpacks as a part of its ninth annual School Rocks Backpack Giveaway, marking more than 1.2 million backpacks donated since the giveaway launched in 2013. Additionally in 2021, TCC donated $50,000 to in-person children’s summer camps across the nation, as well as teacher appreciation kits to more than 500 schools nationwide to show gratitude for educators balancing the struggles of teaching in-person and virtually. The company’s nonprofit organization, TCC Gives, recently surpassed $2.5 million in donations to local nonprofits across the country.
