Opportunity Details
Stuff the Bus
Join us in our annual backpack kit packing. Education is essential to unlocking a student’s potential and achieving financial success. However, for many families in DC and surrounding areas, the cost of buying school supplies can be a significant burden. United Way NCA’s Stuff the Bus campaign aims to provide backpacks filled with grade-appropriate school supplies to students who need them most.
