Good news happens. This week's episode features a conversation about Pack the Bus, United Way’s May 20th volunteer initiative in partnership with Communities in Schools Greater King County. 

Pack the Bus is designed to support students and families during the summer months by providing a busload of essential items, including food, hygiene supplies, and activities.

We sat down with Communities in Schools director Jamie Greene and Alexis Silva, United Way senior community and volunteer engagement manager, to discuss the importance of keeping kiddos nourished and engaged all summer long and the details of Pack the Bus.

 We will also discuss ways you can still file your taxes for free through United Way and spotlight a summer event in Pioneer Square sponsored by United Way grantee CHOOSE 180.

 Thanks for tuning in.
