What is Stuff the Bus?
Stuff the Bus is our annual book drive. Our goal is to collect 24,000 books for children from birth to middle school. Our greatest need is for early childhood books – birth to age 8. Books are donated to childcare centers and child-serving programs in Dallas, Polk, and Warren counties to help us reach our goals in the area of Education Success.
