It's time to start collecting supplies for the annual NHRMC Stuff the Bus campaign. NHRMC is partnering with Communities in Schools to help Stuff the Bus, a back-to-school supply drive supporting at risk youth in New Hanover and Pender counties.
With the help of community partners, Communities in Schools collects school supplies and delivers them to counselors at each public school across both counties, who distribute them to students in need throughout the year. This is an easy way to support our public schools. Consider picking up a few items during your next shopping trip, or shopping order.
