Welcome to Stuff the Bus 2026
Each year, the Grove City Area United Way holds its Stuff the Bus program. The purpose of the program is to provide new backpacks and school supplies to students in need who reside within the Grove City Area School District in Grove City, PA.

Please read the 2025 Stuff the Bus Info Letter for information on the program.

Click below to complete a Request for Assistance Form to be considered for the program. Supplies are provided on a first-come first-served basis, so requests should be submitted in a timely manner. Although we want to assist as many families as possible, there may not be enough supplies to meet all of the requests.
-
The distribution process takes place the week before the first day of school. Families requesting assistance will receive more information about when and where to pick up their supplies. NOTE: Submitting a request does not guarantee that we will be able to provide your student with school supplies.
Donations of new backpacks and school supplies, and monetary donations, are always welcome and can be brought to our office on Monday, Wednesday or Friday at 119 S. Broad Street (please call first to be sure someone will be there).
Monetary donations can also be made here: DONATE to STB. Type Stuff the Bus in the Donor Notes box.
Want to Donate?
Donations of new backpacks & school supplies can be made at the following locations over the summer months:
* Salvation Army School Supplies Drive @ Walmart - July 10th & 11th from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Thank You!
Since beginning the program in our community in 2008, the GCAUW has given out over 1,900 backpacks filled with supplies.
Thank you to the volunteers and contributors that made it possible to meet all of the requested needs thus far
with backpacks and supplies left over for next year as well!
