Monetary donations were used to purchase school supplies for Southern California students in need

ORANGE COUNTY, Calif., (September 11, 2024) — San Diego County Credit Union® (SDCCU®) is proud to announce that the SDCCU® Stuff the Bus collected a total of $16,674 in Orange and Riverside counties, which was used to better prepare students for success as they head back to school this year. The school supply drive, held in partnership with the Angels Baseball Foundation and Jersey Mike’s, encouraged supporters to make monetary donations online, in-branch at any SDCCU location or in-store at participating Jersey Mike’s locations in Orange County.

Stuff the Bus campaign benefitted students in need in Orange and Riverside counties through our partnership with The Angels Baseball Foundation. The donations collected during the campaign were used to purchase school supplies that were distributed to students at the Angels Baseball Foundation Back 2 School Event on July 23 and will continue to support The Angels Baseball Foundation.

“We are so thankful for all of the generous donations from our community and those who help to make this school supply drive successful each year,” said SDCCU President and CEO Teresa Campbell. “The continued support allows us to meet the needs of hundreds of students throughout Orange and Riverside counties. The school supplies purchased using donations collected in this year’s drive will allow the students to return to school this fall ready to learn.”

“We are grateful for the partnership with the SDCCU Stuff the Bus campaign to help provide supplies to our annual Back 2 School Event,” said the Angels Baseball Foundation President Dennis Kuhl. “By giving to this campaign, the donors are partnering with Angels Baseball Foundation and SDCCU to invest in the future of our students.”

The Angels Baseball Foundation was established in 2004 under Arte and Carole Moreno. Together with the Los Angeles Angels, the two organizations have contributed more than $24 million in value toward local causes. Each year, the Angels Baseball Foundation rewards community organizations with grants to benefit the individual needs, and to support programs that impact our youth. The Foundation focuses on improving education, healthcare, arts and sciences, as well as community relation youth programs and military engagement throughout the region.
