Dear Sun Prairie Church Community,

Stuff the Bus, a program of Sunshine Place, is asking for the community’s help to provide 1,600 students in Sun Prairie with backpacks and school supplies. The financial stress of back-to-school time can be hard for many families, especially this year. Stuff the Bus aims to provide students facing hardship with the supplies they need to start the school year off right.

We need your help to make sure that no child or family worries about how they will purchase needed school supplies. Without the community’s support, the Stuff the Bus program cannot meet the demand for these supplies in our community. Those wishing to contribute can help in two ways:
 
Financial Donations
Help us reach our $24,000 fundraising goal by making a financial donation or sharing our online fundraiser. Donations will be used to purchase needed school supplies for 1,600 students. Financial donations can be made by August 15^th through the following.

•  Contribute to and share the fundraiser, promoted on Sunshine Place’s social media pages:

•  Drop off a check at the Bank of Sun Prairie or Sunshine Place. 
•  Mail a check to Sunshine Place, PO Box 307, Sun Prairie, WI 53590; note Stuff the Bus in the memo.

• Tuesday, August 9: 11am-1pm at CH Bird Elementary
• Wednesday, August 10: 4-6pm at Northside Elementary
• Thursday, August 11: 11am-1pm at Westside Elementary AND 4-6pm at Sheehan Park

Every child deserves to start the school year with the basic necessities. Any donation - big or small - will be used to help kids right here in Sun Prairie. Thank you for your support!

Sincerely,

Diane Wiersema, retired educator/committee member
