JC Penney employees will be accepting donations of school supplies and helping “stuff the bus” that will be located at the Oswego Walmart on Route 104 East on August 17 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
In addition, everyone purchasing backpacks at JC Penney for the Stuff-A-Bus campaign will receive a discount coupon for children’s haircuts at its salon.
“We are fortunate to have the support of caring local businesses such as JC Penney,” said United Way Executive Director Patrick Dewine. “On August 17 we will have buses at 8 different locations in the county where community members can drop off donations of school supplies. Without our volunteers we would not be able to do so. We appreciate the willingness of JC Penney employees to donate their time to help us with our Stuff-A-Bus campaign.”
Held annually the Stuff-A-Bus campaign collects school supplies for distribution to economically disadvantaged children throughout Oswego County so that they may have the necessary supplies to successfully begin the school year.
