Record-Breaking Generosity: Regina Fills City Bus with Food for Those in Need
Regina, SK – The spirit of generosity was on full display as this year’s Jack 94.5 Stuff the Bus collected a record-breaking 12,030 pounds of food and raised $53,800 in support of the Regina & District Food Bank.
Thanks to the overwhelming kindness of the Regina community, these donations will provide an estimated 173,427 meals to local families — ensuring more people have access to the nutritious food they need.
John Bailey, CEO of Regina & District Food Bank, shared his gratitude:
“We are incredibly grateful to each and every community member who contributed to Stuff the Bus. Your support goes a long way to ensure the people of Regina have access to the nutritious food they need, especially during challenging times.”
Woody, Jack 94.5 Morning Show host, added:
“Every year we see how important it is for families to put food on their tables. The impact of Stuff the Bus goes beyond the numbers. It represents the spirit of Regina—of neighbours feeding neighbours. Regina came through in a big way.”
The success of Stuff the Bus would not be possible without the incredible generosity of individuals, businesses, and community partners who stepped up to make a difference. Their support will directly benefit the 16,000 individuals who rely on the Regina Food Bank each month — 38% of whom are children.
Now in its sixth year, Jack 94.5 Stuff the Bus has become a proud community tradition since launching in 2019. Each year, it brings together listeners, local partners, and volunteers united by one goal: to fill a City of Regina Transit bus with food and hope for local families.
Since its inception, Stuff the Bus has provided more than 576,000 meals to individuals and families facing food insecurity across Regina and surrounding communities — a powerful reminder of what’s possible when the city comes together.
