KrispyKreme® Doughnuts and The Salvation
Army are partnering to help prepare local students for the upcoming school year
by collecting school supplies during their 2012 “Stuff the

school supplies for parents that come with the start of school each year.
The “Stuff the Bus” campaign will kick off on August 7,
2012 and will run through September 9, 2012. All types of school supplies are
needed, and supporters are asked to help by dropping off new school supplies at
the Krispy Kreme doughnut shop located at 2900 S. 108th St. West Allis, WI

As a sweet reward, supporters will receive one FREE Original
Glazed® doughnut for a single school supply item donation, and one FREE

supplies inside. Suggested items include notebooks, binders, pens, pencils,
scissors, hand sanitizer, etc. The supplies will be given to The
