UNITED WAY OF
LEBANON COUNTY COLLECTING SCHOOL SUPPLIES FOR LOCAL CHILDREN
LEBANON COUNTY, PA: United Way of Lebanon County is proudly hosting their annual
Stuff the Bus school supply drive now through August 12. Not being able to
afford basic school supplies is a barrier for many children and youth in our
communities. The goal for the annual drive is to partner with the community to
collect enough supplies to ensure that every child that needs it has a new book
bag and supplies to start the school year.
United Way of Lebanon County thanks VF Corporation for kicking off
the 2022 Stuff the Bus with their generous donation of 250 backpacks to support
students throughout Lebanon County!
How our community can help:
- Purchase supplies while out shopping, or from United Way’s Amazon wishlist.
- Host a collection at your workplace,
church, civic group, etc.
- Make a donation. A $15 contribution
provides a backpack filled with supplies.
Backpacks and school supplies can be dropped off at United Way’s tent at the First Friday event on August 5 from 4-7pm. This is a
family-friendly event, held at the YMCA Train Depot (201 N. 7th St., Lebanon – 8th St. side of parking lot) includes games, food, live
music, and more. Pick-up and delivery of donated items can also be arranged by
contacting United Way of Lebanon County at 717.273.8144.
Stuff the Bus and related events are a collaborative effort
between United Way of Lebanon County; Making a Difference of Lebanon, PA; The
Salvation Army; WellSpan Health; and the Lebanon Valley Family YMCA.
