Krispy Kreme and The Salvation Army Partner to #StuffTheBus to Benefit Central Florida Students
Annual School Supply Drive Now – August 16, 2015
Krispy Kreme has partnered once again with The Salvation Army to make going back-to-school a little sweeter for local families in need, and I was honored to be there for the kick-off event at the Krispy Kreme Millenia location.
“Krispy Kreme is honored to have the opportunity to help hundreds of students make a fun and easy transition back-to-school,” says Jenny Bellanca, vice president of operations for Florida Family Foods LLC. “The timing is perfect as supporters can take advantage of Florida’s extended back-to-school tax holiday, which will run for 10 days from August 7 through 16, to purchase donations.”
The way the #StuffTheBus works is really simple!
Bring in a single school supply item to donate, and you will receive one FREE Original Glazed® doughnut and one FREE Original Glazed® dozen for each donation of a backpack that contains school supplies.
The supplies will be presented to The Salvation Army and distributed to youth in need through local social service programs.
New school supplies (including notebooks, binders, pens, pencils, scissors, crayons, markers, glue, rulers, and hand sanitizer) will be accepted from now through August 16 at the following Central Florida Krispy Kreme locations:

We will be able to help a lot of young children as they prepare to go back to school, and if you ask me, that’s truly wonderful!”
