“Stuff the Bus” weekend holiday food drive with Capital Metro and Whole Foods Market

Dec09

Starting this Friday, December 12 through Sunday, December 14, Stuff the Bus is coming to a Whole Food Market near you. This year, we’ve expanded Stuff the Bus with Capital Metro buses at two Whole Foods locations: downtown and the Domain, with the goal of raising enough food for 30,000 meals.  In addition, you can donate at any of the other Whole Foods Market in the Austin-area.

There are three easy ways for you to help us stuff these busses and bring great food to the Central Texans who turn to us for help.

  1. Pick up a pre-packaged bag  of our most-needed items while you’re shopping for groceries at Whole Foods Market Downtown and drop them into donation bins after you check out.
  2. Create your own donation bag with food from your own pantry or healthy non-perishable items you purchase at any Whole Foods Market location. 
  3. Add a monitary donation to your final in-store purchase total at the register.

Stuff the Bus helpers will be on hand to say thanks and answer any questions about the campaign at the bus collection sites from 10:00 A.M. – 6:00 P.M.

Whole Foods Market Downtown: 525 N Lamar Blvd.

Whole Foods Market Domain: 11920 Domain Drive

Donations inside any Whole Foods Market store are welcome between 7:00 A.M. – 10:00 P.M.

Meals are gifts that change lives, and the donations we receive during Stuff the Bus will help the Food Bank turn hungry holidays into happy holidays for thousands of Central Texans and help us continue the fight against hunger all year long.
