2025 BLUE JAYS ANNUAL FUNDRAISING WEEKEND – STUFF THE BUS CHALLENGE
On August 31, the Toronto Blue Jays held their annual Blue Jays Fundraising Initiative at Rogers Centre in support of Jays Care Foundation. The club’s longest-running community initiative encouraged Blue Jays fans to help “Stuff the Bus” by donating new school supplies, purchasing mystery items, or making a monetary donation to support Canadian students facing barriers. Blue Jays fans helped raise over $75,000 as well as donated new school supplies which went to students participating in Jays Care Foundations Affiliate Schools Program, providing students the tools they need to succeed and thrive during the academic year.
