Stuff the Bus Helps Students Get Ready to Learn!
Congratulations, your efforts helped over 3,000 students prepare for back to school.
-40 businesses and community groups rallied around this drive to prepare low-income students, to return to school with pride.
-3,496 backpacks full of school supplies were given out to children in need.
-$85,317.50 worth of school supplies were distributed to children and youth through this drive.
We had nearly 45 volunteers who helped load, sort and unload items. The event would not be possible without them.
THANK YOU!
“I am so grateful,” said one grandmother, “I am on a fixed income, raising 3 of my grandchildren and I couldn’t have done this on my own.”
Stuff the Bus is just one of the many ways Communities In Schools of Tacoma is helping to prepare students with the tools needed to be successful in school.
