Stuff The Bus Lakeland 2026

25 Years of Stuff the Bus — and we need YOU!
This year marks our 25th anniversary of Stuff the Bus, and we're going bigger than ever! The Kiwanis Club of Lakeland and The Kiwanis Club of Citrus Center are gearing up to put school supplies in the hands of nearly 10,000 students across all 29 of Lakeland's elementary schools—and we can't do it without your support.
Here's how you can help:
Sort & load — join us to organize donated supplies and pack them up for delivery
Deliver — we need volunteers with large vehicles (SUVs, trucks, vans) or teams of two vehicles to help transport the many boxes of supplies to all 29 elementary schools
Become an Official Supply Drop-Off Location — help collect supplies throughout the community by serving as a public drop-off site! Contact us to sign your business or organization up:
• Colleen Walsh: collrwalsh@gmail.com
• Randy Dell: randy.dell@yahoo.com
Donate—can't volunteer? A financial donation goes a long way!
