Stuff the Bus, the Signature Project of the Junior League of Bryan-College Station,is a community-wide drive to collect school supplies for children-in-need in our area. The Junior League has successfully participated in this project since 2000. In 2007, the Junior League along with our community partners provided school supplies to over 10,000 students. These students were throughout Bryan ISD, College Station ISD and several different local agencies.
Each year Junior League volunteers coordinate all aspects of the program including scheduling and transportation, purchasing and inventory, donation tracking, supply stuffing, and serving as a liaison with the school districts. Public relations of the project within the community helps to spread the word about the program in order to encourage local support and participation. This year we partnered with Clear Channel Radio and several local businesses- Chick-fil-A, Coca-Cola, Commerce National Bank, Cricket, Derek Scott's Auto Park, doc green's, Once Upon a Child, Office Max, Play It Again Sports, Wal-Mart, Wendy's, and West Corporation -who provided radio remotes to promote STB and provided opportunities for people in the community to donate the needed supplies.
Thank you to all who helped make Stuff the Bus such a success in 2007!
