When Peggy Speakman, Human Resources Coordinator from Teleperformance USA, first contacted McVay Elementary School Counselor Jen Verdina, she had no idea that the communication would result in a massive and welcomed donation for students there.  On Thursday morning, August 23, Speakman and colleagues showed up at the building with a whopping 250 brand new, colorful book bags, which were filled with school supplies and personal hygiene products.  Student Council members helped carry in the book bags, which filled the stage.  Principal Jim Swain expressed his appreciation for the generous gift.

Teleperformance USA is a call center located on Executive Parkway in Westerville.  They employ approximately 450 people in the local community.  Six retail clients are serviced at this location.  Each year the company conducts an education drive to benefit a local school.
