Communities in Schools “Stuff the Bus”<br />

For the past four seasons, <strong>Seahawks</strong> fans have participated in the Communities in Schools<br />

“Stuff the Bus” program. Last season, fans participated in the “Stuff the Bus” program before<br />

the Sea hawks preseason game against the Oakland Raiders on September 3. Two school<br />

buses were parked in front of the Qwest Field Event Center for fans to drop off school supplies.<br />

Fans filled the bus with supplies and cash donations. The promotion benefited students in the<br />

Seattle and Tacoma area.<br />

Pacific Rim Relief Effort<br />

Following the devastation in the Pacific Rim and moved by <strong>Seahawks</strong> linebacker Lofa<br />

Tatupu’s $10,000 donation, the <strong>Seahawks</strong> partnered with locally based Medical Teams<br />

International to collect funds for the Pacific Rim region prior to the October 11 game vs. the<br />

Jacksonville Jaguars. Lofa’s donation was also matched by another <strong>Seahawks</strong> player.<br />

<strong>Seahawks</strong> fans donated $12,000.<br />

The Paul G. Allen Family<br />

Foundation matched the<br />

donations by the<br />

<strong>Seahawks</strong> fans and<br />

players for a grand total<br />

of $64,000. <strong>Seahawks</strong><br />

alumni Manu Tuiasosopo<br />

and his family helped<br />

collect funds at<br />

the gates.
