Does anyone know of anyone who has an old useable school Bus I can have cheap or for free. My wife and I are now helping out this little orphanage in Mexico     http://lacasadeesperanza.blogspot.com  and they could really use a Bus that holds about 50 kids. This would make a big difference because it is impossible for them to do things as a group because they don’t have the cars to take them. How great would it be to bring them a bus.

 

I am now searching for a bus and hope to bring it down to them next month. I know there are allot of old busses out there. I just needs some help finding one.

 

Thanks guys.

Todd,

Just a small word of caution.

You need a CDL with appropriate restrictions to operate a bus with the capacity of over 15 people.

You may run into a problem at the border if they figure out that you plan to return to the US without the bus.
