Join Us:  

Fill that Bus! is a community-wide school supply drive that aims to stock the shelves at Crayons2Calculators so Durham Public Schools teachers can get the supplies they need to fuel student success, completely free of charge.

Teachers all across Durham play an integral role in launching students into futures that are bold and full of promise. With your donation of dollars or supplies, you remind our educators how much you value their tremendous talents and efforts; and you put pencils and calculators and crayons and so much more into the hands of future achievers.   

  The Impact: 

Together, we can help ensure all students have the supplies they need to be academically successful. Last year Crayons2Calculators distributed more than $180,000 of school supplies to local teachers, and the demand for supplies is only growing. We need your help to meet this growing need! We proudly serve every school in the Durham Public Schools District. 

 Supply Drop Off Locations for Community Members:

• American Tobacco Campus, Crowe Lobby, Durham from July 24 - August 4

We kindly ask that companies hosting a supply drive, or any large donations, be delivered directly to our warehouse at 808 Bacon St, Durham from 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
