The 21st Annual Stuff the Bus
Wednesday, August 9 at Lion's Club Park
Greene County United Way has been overwhelmed with the support of our community. The generosity from so many businesses, churches, and other nonprofit organizations has been humbling, to say the least.
This year's Stuff the Bus took over the Waynesburg Lions Club & Community Park on Wednesday, August 9. We provided 323 children backpacks with school supplies, new shoes, new or gently-used clothing, haircuts, and dental and/or eye exams. Throughout the course of the day, we provided 84 giant pizzas from Scotty's Pizza, Waynesburg Pa (equaling 1,344 slices of deliciousness) and 423 scoops of ice cream from Iced Cake & Ice Cream Shoppe to the kids and their families!
Only with the community's support are we able to help our county's children. Thank you to First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Greene County, WOMEN of Southwestern PA, Inc., Community Foundation of Greene County, Pennsylvania, Operation Warm & EQT Foundation, CONSOL Energy Inc., Hoy's Construction Company, Cornerstone Care, Fox Bus Company, Waynesburg Lions Club & Community Park, Flenniken Public Library, Corner Cupboard Food Bank Inc, Domestic Violence Services of Southwestern PA, Blueprints, Eva K. Bowlby Public Library, Salvation Army- Greene County, St. Matthias Ladies Guild, and PA 211 Southwest.
And a special shout out to our 65 volunteers, who set-up, clean up, and everything in between! We are SO VERY appreciative of their help - Irene Jacobs, Rosemary Andrew, Debbie Hildreth, Barb Rushak, Janet MaWhinney, Tammy Johnson, Joshuah Dains (GCUW Board), Dave Floyd (GCUW Board), Mary Fox (GCUW Board), Lisa Petro (GCUW Board), Adrienne Tharp (GCUW Board), Bridget Vilencia (GCUW Board), Nora Coldren (GCUW Board), Laura Walters (GCUW Board), Jonathan Johnson (GCUW Board), Shawna Wilkins (GCUW Board), Chad Moore (GCUW Board), Dianne Toothman (GCUW Board), Shelia Stewart (GCUW Board), Sandy Whetsell (GCUW Board), Tracy Toothman, Sally Maxwell, Ethan Maxwell, Ben Maxwell, Kevin Maxwell, Jackie Slogan, Erin Virgili, Levi Krampy, Ava Makel, Pat Bristor, Sara Bell, Heather Farabee, Jamie Emerson, Marci Snee, Samantha Pete, Aaron Sieslki, Ang Good, Chris Battaglia, Anastasia Barr-Whitemann, Amy Seibert, Jason Falvo, Jason Forbes, Rebecca Russel, Kammi Collins-Woolley, Sydney Parker, Zach Stewart, Grace Maskie, Abigail Cuppet, Pieper Whipkey, Chris Goughenour, Carolyn Titus, Autumn Lee, Barb Nelson, Thomas Higley, Susan Dains, Roy Dains, Madyson Debolt, Betty Fox, and last but not least, Cathy Carpenter.

Stuff the Bus began in 2002, as the Greene County United Way Board of Directors identified families who were struggling to purchase back-to-school supplies. GCUW reached out to local businesses and other organizations, asking them to conduct collections by their employees or members or act as public donation sites for the community. The Stuff the Bus program was a success right from the start. School supplies collected are distributed to students in Greene County school districts as well as Head Start and Intermediate Unit programs. Over the last 20 years, through generous donations of supplies and our sponsor, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Greene County, Greene County has helped low income families, who otherwise may not have been able to afford materials and go to school prepared to succeed.
Registration and donation collection begin July 1, 2023.
