School will soon be back in session, but many local students do not have access to new school supplies. There’s an easy way you can help.
Basin Transit, in partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of the Hi-Desert, is hosting a ‘Pack the Bus’ School Supply Drive to collect donations and help set up students for success in the coming school year.
The event will be held on Saturday, July 29th from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. in the Walmart Supercenter parking lot in Yucca Valley.
Through the years, the Boys & Girls Club of the Hi-Desert has had a noteworthy impact on the lives of young people in the area – providing them with opportunities to succeed in school, in life, and in their communities. The organization will provide the supplies donated through the drive to local students in need.
School supplies can include crayons, markers, pencils, notebooks, binders, erasers, rulers, and glue. All items should be new and unused.
Members of Basin Transit’s management team and volunteers from the Boys & Girls Club of the Hi-Desert will be onsite to greet donors, assist with drop-offs, and thank the community for their generosity.
For more information about the event, call Michal Brock at (760) 366-2986.
