SUMMARY:Volunteer Opportunity: Pack the Bus:  May 20
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that when school lets out for the summer\, many children lose access to the meals\, supplies\, and enrichment they need to thrive? To help bridge that gap\, United Way of King County is partnering with Communities in Schools of Greater King County (CIS) to launch Pack the Bus\, a new corporate and community volunteer initiative supporting students and families during the summer months. \nVolunteers will assemble over 2\,500 summer support kits for students across King County\, including select schools in districts such as Seattle\, Lake Washington\, Issaquah\, and Renton. Kits will include food\, hygiene supplies\, activities\, and resources designed to keep students nourished\, healthy\, and engaged all summer long. This is the first year of Pack the Bus\, and our vision is to grow the program to reach even more students and communities. \nWhile this is a partner-led volunteer event\, you can volunteer with our Emerging Leaders 365 group or make an immediate impact by purchasing items from our Amazon Wish List. to support the kits. \nIf your organization is interested in partnering or if you have any questions\, please reach out to Alexis Silva at asilva@uwkc.org and Carrie Bates at cbates@uwkc.org.
