In 2023, Hope through Housing supplied more than 2,000 much-needed backpacks and school supplies to children in underserved California and Texas communities. With 42 events and 105 volunteers, we gathered almost $1,300 in donations, as described in our annual Impact Report.
Through our Building Bright Futures initiative, Hope through Housing is committed to preparing our children for academic success.
Asani, a teen set to enter high school in the fall, said the backpack drive was major to her education.
“I loved getting school supplies because it helps me be prepared for the school year and for the future,” she said.
Generous partners like Target and Walmart contributed pencils, pens, folders and notebooks, ensuring our backpacks were well-equipped for the new school year.
