Oak Creek families and volunteers are invited to join Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin’s annual “Stuff the Bus” food‑drive on Saturday, Nov. 21. The event will take place at the Pick ‘n Save located at 8770 S. Howell Ave., running from noon until 3 p.m.
How to participate
Anyone can stop by the store during the three‑hour window to drop off non‑perishable food items such as canned goods, boxed meals, and shelf‑stable snacks. Cash donations are also welcome and will be used to purchase additional supplies for the region’s food pantries.
Why the drive matters
Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin distributes the collected food and funds to a network of local pantries that serve families struggling with hunger. With the holiday season approaching, demand for assistance rises sharply, making community contributions especially critical.
What to expect
Volunteers will help load the donated items onto a large bus that will transport the goods to partner pantries across the county. The event provides a simple, family‑friendly way for Oak Creek residents to make a tangible impact without leaving their neighborhood.
Additional information
For more details about the “Stuff the Bus” drive, including a list of participating pantries and ways to get involved beyond donating, visit the Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin website. The organization also offers opportunities for ongoing volunteer service throughout the year.
By coming together, Oak Creek can help ensure that families in the area have a nourishing holiday season. Every canned good, box of pasta, or dollar contributed brings the community one step closer to ending hunger locally.
