The Wilson Medical Center Community and Employee Engagement Committees are co-sponsoring a 2025 Back-to-School Drive. This year’s drive will be highlighted by a Back to School “Fill the Bus” Extravaganza, which will take place from 7 a.m.-7 p.m. on Tuesday, July 29 in the hospital's back parking lot.

The goal is to fill up a school bus with supplies that will benefit Wilson County Public Schools. This will be our third consecutive year supporting local students with school supplies.

No gift is too big or small. Back-to-school items can include, but are not limited to:

• Pens/Pencils/Erasers
• Notebooks
• Paper
• Folders
• Bookbags
• Sanitizer/classroom cleaning supplies

This donation drive is not only limited to staff. If you have connections to local organizations, please invite them to drop off items at the school bus. Our goal is to make this a community event, and staff will meet and greet those who drive up with donations.

For any questions regarding the event, contact Visitors Assistance Representative Angela Livingston at 252.399.8107.
