“STUFF THE BUS” PROGRAM
Stuff the Bus 2025: A Community Coming Together for Students
This year’s Stuff the Bus was an incredible success, and it’s all thanks to YOU—our community of donors, volunteers, businesses, and partners who stepped up in a big way for local students.
Because of your generosity and dedication, we were able to:
- Collect over 6,000 school supply items, ensuring classrooms and students are equipped for the year ahead.
- Reach 25 schools across Geary County and surrounding areas, extending support to every corner of our community.
- Give 103 students brand-new Adopt-A-Backpacks, each filled with the tools they need to thrive.
- Log more than 250 volunteer hours, from sorting and organizing supplies to delivering them where they were needed most.
This effort isn’t just about pencils, notebooks, and backpacks. It’s about giving every child the confidence and opportunity to walk into school ready to learn. It’s about neighbors supporting neighbors, and showing our youngest community members that they are seen, valued, and supported.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this possible—our volunteers who gave their time, our donors who gave their resources, and our partners who opened their doors and hearts. Together, we’ve lifted a burden for countless families and ensured that students can focus on what matters most: learning and growing.
Thank you for living UNITED and making Stuff the Bus 2025 a true community celebration of generosity, hope, and possibility.
