Stuff the Bus Donation Locations: First Light & Western Tech

With the new school year upon us, we want to help children in our area head back to the classroom with the necessary resources to learn and succeed despite their family’s financial limitations.

We’re Mike and Tricia, and with your help we can assist children in need with basic school supplies via our 23rd Annual Mike and Tricia Stuff the Bus School Supply Drive.

If you’d like to help our cause, simply purchase whatever amount of school supplies you wish to donate on our behalf from the wish-list below and drop them off at any Western Tech campus or First Light Federal Credit Union branch in El Paso or Las Cruces through July 26, 2019.

All supplies collected will be donated to the various charitable organizations we have been contributing to annually.

And new this year, we've teamed up with Khalid’s namesake non-profit, The Great Khalid Foundation, and a portion of the supplies will be presented to it in support of its back to school goal of providing school supplies for the entire sixth grade level from three El Paso schools; one middle school with the most in-need students in EPISD, SISD, and YISD.

Look for the official Mike & Tricia Stuff the Bus donation box at the locations listed below. Supplies can also be dropped off at the radio station, 4180 N. Mesa, Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. through the end of July.
