It was a chilly start for the 16th Annual Stuff the Bus event for Children’s Home & Aid Crisis Nursery on Monday at Walmart in Normal with Paul Davis Restoration, in partnership with Connect Transit, Amalgamated Transit Union, and Great Plains Media.

But that soon changed! Things started warming up with your donations!


Presented by Paul Davis Restoration, in partnership with Connect Transit, Amalgamated Transit Union, and Great Plains Media, we are readying the 16th Annual “Stuff the Bus” for the holidays. Help the Children’s Home & Aid Crisis Nursery make a difference in the lives of local babies and children in crisis!
