First Interstate in both Whitefish and Evergreen are acting as donation drop locations for the annual Salvation Army School Supply Drive. In Kalispell donations can be taken to Flathead Electric and Shopko and to the Salvation Army directly at 110 Bountiful Drive. According to Major Merry Svenson the Salvation Army gave out 350 backpacks filled with supplies last year. This year they expect the need to be even greater.
