(KNSI) – The Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Minnesota are once again looking to be the apple of every teacher’s eye by ensuring all students have the necessary supplies for back to school.
Senior Director of Communications Aimee Minnerath says notebooks, folders, binders, glue, crayons…it’s all fair game.
The goal is to “Stuff the Bus.”
She says, “When you do your school supply shopping, pick up some extra supplies for a kid in need. There are actually some steps leading up to a window. You can just drop them through the window of the bus and know that you have done your part to make sure that kids can be successful this school year.”
Minnerath says every Stuff The Bus donation is appreciated, but sometimes among the piles of glue and colored pencils, it is easy to forget about the needs of high school students.
“Scientific calculators…those are a supply that is in great need and harder to come by.”
Stuff The Bus runs until August 22nd. Donations can be dropped off during regular mall hours. Supplies are moved to the three Girls and Boys Clubs of Central Minnesota locations where they’re distributed to students.
