Stuff the Bus 2024
Help Us Stuff the Bus!
Over the years, United Way's "Stuff the Bus" campaign has proven to be a tremendous success, making a significant impact on the lives of countless children. Last year, we reached a remarkable milestone by collecting 22,716 new school supply items, which allowed us to stuff 1,750 backpacks in record time. This achievement was made possible through the dedicated efforts of 70 incredible volunteers.
This year, we invite you to join us once again in making a difference. We can come together as a community to match or even surpass last year's success.
