Stuff the Bus 2025

December 2025

School-wide, HCS is collecting non-perishable food items for Hermiston Police Department’s annual Christmas Express Food Drive. Each year you are generous in giving, and we thank you for participating again! The class that collects the most non-perishable food items will earn an ice cream party!

We are also expanding our collection efforts to support Stepping Stones Alliance and their
“Reverse Advent Calendar” project of requested items. This local organization is collecting a variety of food, care, and supply items to benefit those they help on a daily basis. See the attached graphic for their requests.

Your students may bring Food Drive and Stepping Stones items to their classroom from December 1-11. We will Stuff the Bus and deliver items on December 12th!

We plan to give any items specifically on the “Reverse Advent Calendar’ to Stepping Stones (unless indicated otherwise by the giver) and all other non-perishable boxed and canned food to the Christmas Express Food Drive.


We are honored to support BOTH of these meaningful causes and deeply appreciate your generosity during this season of giving! May we continue to extend our blessings to others this season.

We love seeing how God uses His people to show others how much He truly loves them and wants to meet their needs. Thank YOU!
