Students will have the opportunity to “Stuff the Bus” with school supplies Friday as part of an annual Panhellenic Executive Board charity outreach program.
The physical school bus will be located on campus by the flagpole. Students can come by from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. to drop off their donations.
“This is a great opportunity to reach out and help those in need beyond the scope of our SMU community,” Alyssa Fox, the vice president of programming for Panhellenic, said. “These schools receive low funding and their students have high need, so donating these supplies will help improve the quality of their educational experience.”
This year Panhellenic will be donating the collected school supplies to J.L. Long Middle School and Stephen Foster Elementary Schools. Both of these schools are a part of the Dallas Independent School District.
The supplies collected will benefit both the students and the teachers at the recipient schools.
The Panhellenic Executive Board will personally deliver the school supplies after Thanksgiving break.
