Augusta, GA – Through donated school supplies and volunteer efforts, SRP Federal Credit Union employees, known internally as ambassadors, made a meaningful impact during United Way of the CSRA's 2026 Stuff the Bus school supply drive. United Way's annual Stuff the Bus campaign collects school supplies to help local K–12 students begin the school year with the tools they need to succeed.
Backpacks, notebooks, art supplies, writing utensils, calculators, and more filled donation bins at SRP's branches and administrative campus throughout the July drive. The company-wide initiative concluded with a volunteer day at the Salvation Army Kroc Center, where SRP ambassadors sorted, labeled, and packed school supplies for distribution to local K–12 students.
“We are incredibly grateful to SRP Federal Credit Union for showing what true community partnership looks like,” said Brittany Burnett, President and CEO of United Way of the CSRA. “Their team didn’t just give—they showed up, volunteered, and helped make Stuff the Bus a success for so many of our local students. Because of SRP, children across our community will start the school year with the tools they need to learn, grow, and succeed. We are so grateful for SRP for investing in their future.”
SRP Community Impact Manager Lonzo Smith, whose team organized SRP’s efforts, said every donation helps relieve some of the financial pressure families experience during the back-to-school season.
“For SRP, Stuff the Bus is about making sure local students start the school year feeling prepared, confident, and ready to learn,” said Smith. “As a community-focused credit union, we understand that something as simple as a backpack, notebook, or pack of pencils can make a big difference for a family. This campaign gives us an opportunity to come together as employees, ambassadors, members, and neighbors to invest in the future of our community's children.”
Guided by the credit union philosophy of People Helping People, SRP Federal Credit Union is committed to uplifting education across the 10 counties it serves. Smith said the Stuff the Bus campaign demonstrated a strong spirit of generosity among SRP ambassadors.
“When hundreds of people come together for a common cause, the impact ripples throughout the community,” said Smith. “Students benefit, families benefit, teachers benefit, and ultimately, our entire community is stronger because we're helping create opportunities for young people to thrive.”
