Final Days to Donate and Help Local Schools Win a Busload of Supplies; Campaign Ends June 30th

Time is running out for the community to make a significant impact on local students through the "Stuff the Bus" initiative, a school supply drive aimed at equipping students at Dean's Mill School and Waterford High School for the upcoming academic year. The campaign concludes at the end of this month, leaving just a few days to contribute.

The "Stuff the Bus" drive is part of a larger competition involving five local schools, all vying for a grand prize: a bus filled with school supplies. While all participating schools retain every item donated to them, the school that collects the most supplies by the deadline will win the coveted busload.
