Stuff the Bus/Stuff the Desk of south Wood County 2019 was a great success! Thanks so much to all the area businesses, organizations and individuals who donated supplies and/or money to this great cause. Because of their generosity, we were able to send 827 students back to school with the supplies they need for a great and productive year. This year we collected; 659 backpacks, 590 packs of colored pencils, 684 boxes of crayons, 528 highlighters and 356 rulers, just to name a few items donated by our caring community. Another huge thanks to all our wonderful volunteers we had at both events. We are very appreciative of all their help and hard work at these events. We could not collect, sort, count or pre-pack supplies without them. It is always so great to have these amazing volunteers come back year after year to help us.
