CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – The annual Stuff the Bus donation drive for school supplies, sponsored by Grace Dental, continues Sunday Aug 5 from noon-5 p.m. at Walmart on Madison Street in Sango.
Abby Binkley, Executive Director of the Education Foundation, says many teachers spend their own money to keep up with supplies in the classroom. Stuff the Bus and Teacher Warehouse help reduce the out-of-pocket expenses for local teachers.
All of the supplies donated will go to the Clarksville-Montgomery County Education Foundation’s Teachers Warehouse. Teachers are assigned points they can use to pick up school supplies, which will help supplement the items they already have. Some of the supplies will go to students whose families can’t afford to buy their school supplies.
