United Way is gearing up for our annual Stuff the Bus school supply drive on Thursday, Aug. 8. Last year, we gathered more than 15,000 items that were given to local kids through the school district and local nonprofits.
United Way is looking for volunteers to take hour-long shifts. Anyone who has volunteered before can attest that this is one of United Way’s most rewarding events all year. The response from our community is amazing and we are able to do so much with the 15,000 items donated last year.
Many slots have already been filled, but help is still needed at both the Target and New Walmart buses. Please see the time slots below where the most help is needed. We welcome small groups and individuals. Volunteers will help sort items donated at the two buses, hand out school supply lists to shoppers and relay donated items from the store to the bus parked in the lot. If you are interested in volunteering, please email Jessica at jbriggs@uwccmt.org.
