Stuff The Bus School Supplies Drive

The Santa Cruz County Office of Education and United Way is hosting their Annual Stuff-A-Thon event on August 7th, 2021 at the Kaiser Permanente Arena in Downtown Santa Cruz. All are welcome to help stuff over 3,000 backpacks with NEW school supplies to help students go back to school with the tools they need to succeed!

With over 4,000 K-12 students currently experiencing homelessness or extreme hardships in Santa Cruz County, the Stuff The Bus initiative will provide essential school supplies for local students in time for the start of the school year.


3 Ways To Get Involved:
Donate today! A $25 donation provides a new backpack filled with essential school supplies. Our goal is to collect 3,000 backpacks this year!
Download the School Supply List! You can also dial 2-1-1 for the list of collection drive locations.
Sign up & volunteer at the Stuff-A-Thon event on Saturday, August 7th at the Kaiser Permanente Arena. (Coming Soon)
Thank you for supporting Stuff The Bus and see you there!
