The Loveland Schools Transportation Department has launched a District-wide initiative to benefit Loveland children. The goal of “Stuff-a-Bus” is to collect a school bus full of fun, healthy and kid-friendly foods through donations to support children in need throughout the Loveland community. “We want to challenge our Tiger staff and families to help us fill a whole school bus with food for kids,” says Lisa Simpson, student support staff and member of the Loveland City School District Transportation Department. “We’re looking for individual portion, shelf-stable foods that kids can prepare and eat on their own, fostering their independence and self-reliance.” Delivery to the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry is targeted for Saturday, October 6. Donations can be sent with students to school or dropped off at any Loveland school campus. Suggested food items: Chicken and tuna pouches Deviled ham, Spam pouch and Vienna Sausages Peanut butter Fruit cups Applesauce cups or pouches Raisins and Craisins boxes Milk (snack pack size shelf stable) white or chocolate Hot chocolate and apple cider mix Pudding cups Mac & Cheese (individual and boxes) Pasta dishes and other individual meals (Barilla, Chef Boyardee and store brands) Rice A Roni cups Ramen noodles Soup for one Oatmeal – instant variety packs Cereal (boxes and individual) Toaster pastries Mini muffins Granola and cereal bars Fruit snacks pouches Crackers, pretzels, snack chips (single serving) Cookies |
