We hope to surround students, teachers, and schools with a community of support!
On Sunday, August 10th, join us in supporting our local partner, Communities in Schools (CIS), through the collection of school supplies! CIS is a local organization who operates inside public schools to support vulnerable students, empowering them to stay in school and on the path to graduation. Through Stuff the Bus, we hope that our church will come alongside the mission of CIS to surround students, teachers, and schools with a community of support!

Each campus has a slightly different supply list based on the specific needs of its respective school system. To view a supply list for your campus and other pertinent info, select your campus below.

Stuff the Bus is first and foremost about people, and collecting school supplies is simply the means by which we love people. Therefore, we want to feature the stories of all the people who give and receive God’s love through Stuff the Bus. Read on to be inspired.
A look back…
JUST THE BEGINNING!
Stuff the Bus does not end with the collection of school supplies, but serves as a starting point for connection.
We encourage you to connect with our schools through volunteering and praying, too.
