Nation’s Battery Expert Offers Consumers & Teachers Chance to Win Year’s Supply of Batteries
HARTLAND, Wis., (February 12, 2024) – In recognition of National Battery Day on February 18th, Batteries Plus, the nation’s largest specialty battery brand committed to powering people’s lives, announced today it will once again award three lucky winners, plus a teacher of their choice, the prize of a year’s worth of free batteries. The second annual National Battery Day contest, which runs February 15 – 29, gives consumers the opportunity to receive a 12-month supply of free AA and AAA batteries while also selecting and rewarding a local teacher in their community with the same prize for their classroom. As National Battery Day falls on February 18, this initiative serves as a timely reminder of the indispensable role batteries play in powering our daily lives.
Throughout the contest, Batteries Plus will collect submissions and three winners will be selected in a random drawing on March 1. These lucky recipients will then have the opportunity to select a local teacher to receive a donation of one year’s worth of batteries as well. Because teachers play such an intricate role in communities across the country, Batteries Plus wants to contribute to powering their classroom’s essential tools. Winners will have the chance to nominate teachers until March 19.
