Local partners gearing up to Stuff the Bus to benefit Flagstaff Family Food Center

COCONINO COUNTY — The City of Flagstaff, Coconino County, and Mountain Line are once again partnering for a Stuff the Bus event on Sunday, November 17 to benefit the Flagstaff Family Food Center (FFFC).

This year’s event will be at the Safeway store located at 1201 S. Plaza Way in Flagstaff from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. The public is invited to bring non-perishable food donations for a Thanksgiving meal, and FFFC staff and volunteers will be on-hand to accept monetary donations. Additionally, the partners set a goal to stuff the bus with 300 turkeys to help our neighbors in need.

FFFC serves more than 1,500 meals every day, and more than 40,000 a month. The demand for food in 2024 is the highest it’s ever been, and FFFC relies on events like Stuff the Bus to help bring in approximately 12,000 pounds of food for the holidays.
