Synergy Bank, United Way of South Louisiana, and H.O.P.E. Ministry of Pointe Coupee is excited to announce our 12th annual Pack the Bus School Supply Drive to benefit local children and schools!
Thanks to the support of our generous community, the Pack the Bus School Supply Drive has donated hundreds of thousands of school supplies to local students. The supplies collected in the Bayou Region are distributed to schools in Terrebonne and Lafourche Parishes, while supplies collected in the Capital Region are distributed to schools in Pointe Coupee Parish.
We are grateful to the local businesses and civic groups whose partnership help us Pack the Bus! Supplies are collected and delivered to Terrebonne, Lafourche, and Pointe Coupee Parish School Districts in time for the 2026-2027 school year. If you have a student in need of school supplies, please contact:
- Terrebonne Parish – Kwanzaa Johnson at 985-879-6400 ext. 264
- Lafourche Parish – Quentina Brown at 985-532-2508
- Pointe Coupee Parish – Tabitha Ransom or Kristin Ramsey at 225-638-8674
Our Pack the Bus School Supply Drive takes place every July. If you’d like to participate, please contact us at [email protected].
