By United Way of Western Nebraska
United Way of Western Nebraska’s “Stuff the Bus” is ramping up to help local school children. Stuff the Bus is United Way’s annual school supply drive to help local children and their families that may be unable to purchase the necessary school supplies for the schoolyear.
The public is encouraged to donate new schools supplies or make a monetary donation. The drive runs July 17th , 2023, through July 28th , 2023 with the mission to help local kids with school supplies. Donations of backpacks, earbuds, personal water bottles, lunch boxes, disinfectant wipes, and other school supplies are welcome to be dropped off at either the Alliance United Way office (723 Flack Avenue, Alliance, NE 69301) or the Scottsbluff United Way office (1517 Broadway, Suite 106, Scottsbluff, NE 69361).
Monetary donations are welcome at uwwn.org/bus or mailed to either local United Way office. 100% of all monetary donations will be used to purchase school supplies, and those supplies are distributed to local children in need to help them get started on the right foot and succeed in school. For every $20 donated, it will help one child get the necessary school supplies.
Monetary donations may be made online at uwwn.org/bus or mailed to United Way, P.O. Box 17, Alliance, NE 69301 or 1517 Broadway, Suite 106 Scottsbluff, NE 69361. For more information about Stuff the Bus or United Way please contact Ally Shipman at 308-635-2522 or [email protected].
United Way continues the strong tradition of ensuring that donor dollars stay local, and the monies raised stay in the area where they were raised. Stuff the Bus is no exception, donations made for Stuff the Bus will help local children in the community.
