Goddard School students and staff will "stuff the bus" with backpacks and school supplies they collected this summer for underprivileged children through the Children's Restoration Network this Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. They're asking community members to participate by helping pack backpacks and donating school supplies such as ruled paper, notebooks, crayons, pencils, pens and rulers. The event will take place at their school at 1150 Hammond Dr. in Atlanta.
