United Way Stuff the Bus

CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS

This year, United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut is proudly partnering with The Village for Families & Children and Hartford Public Schools to stock local classrooms with school supplies through Stuff the Bus.

Join us! Your donated supplies and funds will support local school programs dedicated to advancing children academically.

Together, we close gaps and create opportunities so every child succeeds in school.

There are three ways you and your organization can get involved:

Support Our Backpack Drive

Ensure ensure a child walks into school on the first day with confidence and the tools they need to succeed. United Way is proud to partner with The Village for Families & Children on this initiative.
