Residents Invited To 'Stuff The Bus' At Bremen Food Drive
The event will take place Saturday from 9 - 11 a.m. and has multiple options for residents to donate.
OAK FOREST, IL — Bremen High School's annual "Stuff the Bus" food drive event will be held this Saturday, Nov. 13, officials told Patch.
At the event, local families can donate food for area pantries with a goal of filling an entire school bus with canned and non-perishable goods for families in need. The high school has organized an annual food drive during November since 1985, though the COVID-19 pandemic forced students and staff to think outside the box.
Earlier in the month, students dropped off paper bags to interested families for them to fill and later have picked up for the drive. Residents who did not get a chance to fill a paper bag can still donate in person at Bremen High School this Saturday from 9 - 11 a.m. and donate money to the program's GoFundMe until Nov. 30.
