Mathnasium of La Jollan is proud to announce that our 17 locations in San Diego will be sponsoring Stuff the Bus, a school supply drive run by the San Diego County Office of Education and SDCCU benefiting students experiencing homelessness.
More than 22,000 school-aged children were identified as homeless during the last school year. Students who are homeless face many hardships,—school supplies should not be one of them. That’s why Mathnasium has partnered with the San Diego County Office of Education (SDCOE), San Diego County Credit Union® (SDCCU®), and iHeartMedia radio stations in support of Live Well San Diego to collect school supplies for students experiencing homelessness. Homelessness is not limited to urban, downtown San Diego—it affects suburban school districts all over the county. We want these students to start the year with the supplies they need just like all of their peers. Your donation can help us do that! Last year we were able to deliver over 6,000 backpacks and 200,000 school supplies to students in San Diego County!
