Kettle Run Stuff’s the Bus
Kettle Run High School Stuff the Bus started on Oct 13, 2026 and ended on Oct 23, 2026. Stuff the bus is a program that many schools do to collect boxed or canned food for people in need of food during the fall season. The foods that they collect are Boxed Stuffing, Canned Cranberry Sauce, and all non perishable foods.

Last year Kettle Run High School collected a little bit more than one hundred foods, but this year Kettle Run collected over 3,000 more.
