A Family in Need
With only a few days left before the start of the school year, a mother from Council Rock School District called our office in search of school supplies. Her family was in need. Unexpectedly, her husband was laid off from his job and the household budget became very tight, very fast. With the new school year quickly approaching, there was no extra money to buy their kids the supplies they needed to start school.
Through Stuff the Bus, we were able to provide all three kids with a brand new backpack full of school supplies.
Thanks to donors like YOU they will be able to start the school year ready to learn.
