Support our Back to School campaign
Sisters Yazmeen, Lessie and Telliah Thompson (pictured, from left to right) are headed back to school this fall with everything they need. With support from people like you, the Thompson sisters are excited about their first day back to school and they are now living in stable housing with the rest of their family after facing homelessness last year.
Make a difference for families and children. Our Back to School campaign helps us prepare the children we serve for success in these ways:
- One-on-one tutoring and homework help in our Study Buddies Program
- Learning resources including computers, books, games, and educational toys
- Healthy meals prepared by our trained culinary specialist
