The Toronto Blue Jays will be hosting its annual Blue Jays Families Fundraising Weekend on Friday, August 23 and Saturday, August 24 at Rogers Centre in support of Jays Care Foundation. The club’s longest-running community initiative is encouraging Blue Jays fans to help “Stuff the Bus” by donating new school supplies, purchasing mystery bags, or making a monetary donation to support Canadian students facing barriers that impact their ability to succeed in the classroom.

All proceeds from the Stuff the Bus Challenge will benefit Jays Care Foundation’s Affiliate School Program, a dynamic program supporting educators and students across Canada. School supplies donated will be provided to Affiliate Schools across the country giving students the tools they need to succeed and thrive during the upcoming academic year.

Jays Care's Affiliate Schools program gives educators across the country the opportunity to run free award-winning sport for development programming for students facing barriers. Educators can register at no cost, and Jays Care provides a specialized equipment kit, Blue Jays gear, a best-in-class program manual, and support as they implement the programs at their school. There are currently more than 1,200 schools and more than 21,000 students participating in Jays Care programs through Affiliate Schools.

• Drop off new school supplies on August 23 & 24 outside Rogers Centre at Gate 5/6 or inside the stadium at Section 131.
• Purchase a mystery bag at the ballpark containing a Blue Jays item for $20.00 - $50.00.
• Make a monetary donation while at the game or online.
