Area residents have a chance to “Stuff the Bus” with school supplies during the fourth annual Live United Day at Chattanooga Market on Sunday, Aug. 18.
Coordinated by the United Way of Greater Chattanooga, last year’s effort collected more than $16,000 worth of supplies for the Hamilton County PTA Teacher Supply Depot. This year’s goal is to increase one-day Live United Day gifts to $20,000 in supplies. The drive continues through Oct. 31, with a total goal of $50,000 worth of supplies to be used by local students throughout the year.
More than a dozen United Way partners will have booths set up throughout the market with children’s games, arts, crafts and healthy activities for children and their families to enjoy. Parents also can sign their toddlers up for free books and learning checkups. Every child who completes a learning checkup at the market that day will be mailed a voucher for a free family pass to the Creative Discovery Museum.
