United Way "Stuff the Bus" campaign underway now!

 


It’s time to Stuff the Bus!

United Way of Western Nebraska invites you to help us Stuff the Bus with school supplies for children in need!

United Way believes that advancing the common good means creating opportunities for a better life for all- and that begins with preparing children to succeed in school. We will be collecting new school supplies that will be distributed to eight area school districts (Scottsbluff, Gering, Mitchell, Morrill, Minatare, Bayard, Bridgeport, Banner County) and CAPWN. The supplies will then be distributed to students in need, allowing them the tools to proudly start and succeed in school.

People are welcome to drop off new school supplies at the bus that will be parked at various businesses in Scottsbluff and Gering from July 21st through August 1st. During those dates you can also drop off school supplies in the collection containers at Mainstreet Market, Walmart, Wolf Auto, Valley Bank branch locations or the United Way office. Monetary donations will also be accepted to purchase additional school supplies and can be mailed to or dropped off at the United Way office, 1517 Broadway Suite #106, Scottsbluff NE 69361.

For more information or for bus locations call United Way 308-635-2522 or visit our website at www.unitedwayofwesternnebraska.com
