United Way STUFF THE BUS! School Supplies Drive presented by Mosaic Life will be held on August 2 & August 3 at North Belt & South Belt Walmart.
Volunteers are needed to collect donated new school supply items that will be distributed through United Way Partner Agencies and Programs, including The Salvation Army.
Donors are needed to purchase new school supply items and donate to United Way STUFF THE BUS! Needed items include: binders, backpacks, markers, crayons, scissors and construction paper, among other items. Since 2009, United Way STUFF THE BUS! has collected and distributed more than 281,000 school supplies items to area children, classrooms and programs.
Collected items will be distributed to families through The Salvation Army on August 8 and those in need of supplies can contact The Salvation Army at 816.232.5824 for more information. Supplies are also distributed to schools and programs through United Way.
Last year more than 750 students in more than 30 schools received backpacks full of school supplies to help ensure children can start school with the tools and supplies needed to be successful in the classroom.
