Stuff the Bus!
Every year, Santa Cruz County Office of Education and United Way team up to host Stuff The Bus to gather essential backpacks and school supplies to help prepare youth for the new school year. We provide these backpacks and supplies to youth currently experiencing homelessness and/or other hardships.
In 2020, Stuff The Bus provided the necessary school supplies to support distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. You helped us provide over 2,000 backpacks filled with tools to encourage mindfulness and well-being during the pandemic…THANK YOU!
Data from the County Office of Education states that there are 4,749 youth who are currently experiencing homelessness or extreme hardship in Santa Cruz County.
With your help, we are aiming to donate 3,000 backpacks with new school supplies to Santa Cruz County youth who need them. Your donation will send youth back to school fully equipped and on the pathway to success
