How can I add my iPad to my Verizon service if it was not purchased from Verizon?

Apparently, I can not add my iPad to my Verizon data plan because there is not an MEID number for it because it was not purchased from Verizon. The iPad was a gift and is not connected to any service provider. Right now, I can only access the web when I am hooked into wifi. I want to be able to access it anywhere. Is there a way to configure the iPad in order to get it connected to a service provider?

iPad 2, iOS 7.0.4

The iPad must be purchased specifically as a Verizon model. If it's not, Verizon will not allow it.
