Pack the Bus: Back-to-School Supplies Drive

Help us make a difference in the lives of local students! Join our annual Pack the Bus event and donate school supplies to ensure every child starts the school year with the tools they need to succeed. We will be stuffing an actual school bus with school supplies for students and teachers in the Marietta City Schools! Once all donations are received, we will distribute them to the 13 schools and 8,599 students in the district. NOTE – This is a rain or shine event!

Come see us on Monday, July 29th from 10 am-2 pm. Look for the big yellow school bus at Marietta High School and drop off your school supplies directly on the bus. Let’s fill every seat with supplies and show our community spirit! Click here to view the flyer with the school supplies list. >>
