Friendship Home’s Stuff the Bus Event Set for April 30 and May 1

Friendship Home (www.friendshiphome.org) invites the Lincoln community to support the 23rd annual Stuff the Bus event benefiting domestic violence survivors and their children on Saturday, April 30 and Sunday, May 1. The event is being held in partnership with StarTran and Alpha Media Radio Stations.

Volunteers will be handing out needs lists with a variety of items and price ranges at all Lincoln area Walmart and Sam’s Clubs locations as well as stuffing busses from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Sunday. Stuff the Bus is an opportunity for Friendship Home to help raise awareness about domestic violence while collecting basic needs for families served by the organization.

For more information on volunteering as an individual or a team for Stuff the Bus, or if you would like to purchase items from Friendship Home’s online needs list, please contact Dani at (402) 434-0167 or danib@friendshiphome.org.
