Community Comes Together to STUFF THE BUS!

Over 20,000 school supply items collected thanks to generous donors and volunteers. 

A Successful 17th Annual STUFF THE BUS!

United Way of Greater St. Joseph’s 17th Annual STUFF THE BUS! School Supplies Drive, presented by Mosaic Life Care, was a great success – all thanks to the power of community.

This year’s drive brought in:

•  Over 20,000 school supply items

•  More than $2,000 in donations

These contributions will help ensure that students across the region head back to school equipped and ready to learn. Since 2009, our generous community has donated over 300,000 items through this annual drive!

How Supplies Are Distributed

Donated supplies will be distributed through United Way Partner Agencies and Programs, including The Salvation Army.

If your family is in need of school supplies, please contact:

Distribution begins August 7, 2025
