Surrey, BC – STAPLES Business Depot and Vancouver School Bus partnered to fundraise for school supplies at the 152nd Street, Surrey location on August 21st. “The “Stuff the Bus” charity is a campaign run by Staples stores all over the world to collect school supplies and donations to get school supplies to children who can’t afford them. In the 124 schools in the Surrey School district alone there will be an estimated 21,000  children who will arrive in September without basic school supplies. We run the “Stuff the Bus” campaign to change that.” – Emily Raven, Organizer

Bouncy Castles and concert stage drew hundreds of interested donators and the event raised over $1,200 in school supplies.  Vancouver School Bus provided Percy #16 to be used to promote the event.  “We were happy to participate in the campaign and help kids in need.” – Jeff Leung, Chief Bus Driver.

Looking forward to next years campaign!
