Lethbridge groups launch annual 'Stuff the Bus' school supply drive
Community organizations are teaming up ahead of the new school year to collect supplies for local students in need.
Why it matters
The campaign helps ensure Lethbridge students have the supplies they need to start the school year, regardless of their family's financial situation.
Several Lethbridge community groups have partnered with Ready, Set, GO! to launch this year's 'Stuff the Bus' campaign, an annual initiative aimed at collecting school supplies before classes resume.
The drive, now an established tradition in the city, asks residents to donate supplies that will be distributed to students heading back to school. Organizers are running the campaign in the weeks leading up to the start of the new school year.
Details on drop-off locations and specific supply needs were not fully outlined, but the initiative continues to rely on community participation to help stock up local schools.
