Team up with United Way of Forsyth County as we "Stuff the Bus" with school supplies for children in need. Now, more than ever, children are going without the most basic items for back-to-school and teachers are buying supplies with money out of their own pockets. Help us prepare for the first day of school by donating items to the yellow school buses in the parking lots of Lakeland Plaza and Johns Creek Shopping Center.
Donations will go to The Place of Forsyth County and the Forsyth County Schools to help children who need school supplies for the 2009-2010 school year. See below for a basic school supplies list and help us "Stuff the Bus!"
