Fetch-A-Tech Starts "Fill the Van" Initiative - Giving Free A/C Tune-Ups to Backpack Contributors and $250 Discounts on Repairs for Bigger Gifts by August 7.

/PRNewswire/ -- When classes resume on August 10, many Las Vegas students will arrive at school missing key items required to do well. Fetch-A-Tech Plumbing Heating and Air aims to help by collecting backpacks one at a time. Through August 7 the firm will provide free air conditioning tune-ups for each backpack donated and $250 off repairs for gifts valued over $100.

The company has begun its 2026 Back-to-School Backpack and School Supply Drive. The target is to fill one Fetch-A-Tech van with enough items to support 100 local students. The effort continues until August 7 2026 and works with Communities in Schools of Southern Nevada.

"No child should start the year feeling unprepared," said Manny Gonzales General Manager at Fetch-A-Tech. "We repair cooling systems and plumbing daily but this summer we want to tackle a larger issue - the shortage many families encounter each August. We are asking customers and neighbors to help load the van and we are backing that request with real value. Bring a backpack and receive a free tune-up as our thanks."

The drive centers on a clear target: fill a company service van with supplies so 100 students receive complete backpacks before school starts.

WAYS TO JOIN THE EFFORT Fetch-A-Tech has made giving simple.

Office Drop-Off: Donations are accepted at 5075 Diablo Drive Las Vegas NV starting July 7 and continuing through August 7.

Technician Collection: Donors may schedule a pickup during a regular service visit.

Mobile Events: The team will host "Fetch on the Move" stops at various valley locations with details shared on social media.

REWARDS FOR DONORS Contributors receive special offers.

Free Tune-Up: Anyone donating a backpack from July 7 to August 7 gets a complimentary air conditioning check.

Large Gift Benefit: Donations of $100 or more in goods or cash earn $250 off a qualifying repair.

All rewards apply to gifts received between July 7 and August 7 2026.

"Summer heat is intense and so is the cost of school shopping for many households," Gonzales added. "We have one month to equip 100 children. Each item donated moves us closer to the goal. Time is short and students are relying on us so let us fill the van."

TRACK THE PROGRESS Fetch-A-Tech will share weekly updates photos and videos on TikTok Instagram and Facebook showing the van fill up with a final reveal once capacity is reached.
