‘Stuff the bus’ to help with school supplies
Valley Bank will be having a fundraiser 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday at all five branches to “stuff the bus” and gather supplies for children returning to school this fall.
It is part of Angel Fund’s Stuff the Bus campaign for local Helena-area students.
• Each branch (main, eastside, East Helena, downtown, and westside) will have their own school theme featuring donation trackers and decorations.
• School mascots from the high schools and Carroll College will be at each branch from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to help drive donations and take pictures with customers.
Capital High School at the main branch; Helena High School at the eastside branch; East Helena High School will be at the East Helena branch and Carroll College will be at the downtown branch
