THANK YOU DURHAM! The 2016 Fill That Bus! school supply drive has been a huge success. We are still bringing in and processing some supplies so it will be mid September before we have a grand total. Thanks to the many businesses, neighborhoods and associations we hope to make our goal of $135,000 worth of supplies and cash donations. You can still help!
