Every Child Deserves a Strong Start

For many families, the beginning of a new school year is exciting.

For others, it's overwhelming.

Across Greater Houston, rising housing costs, inflation, and financial hardship are forcing parents to make impossible choices between paying rent, buying groceries, and purchasing school supplies.

At Cornerstone Family Resource Center (CFRC), we meet families every day who are working hard but simply need a helping hand.

This Back-to-School Drive will provide children with the essential supplies they need to begin the school year prepared, confident, and ready to learn.

Your generosity will help provide:

• Backpacks
• Notebooks and paper
• Pens, pencils, crayons, and markers
• Folders and binders
• Classroom essentials
• Hygiene items when available

But your gift does even more.

When families visit CFRC for school supplies, they also gain access to food assistance, housing stability resources, employment services, community referrals, and ongoing support that helps strengthen the entire family.

Every backpack represents more than school supplies.

It represents hope.

It tells a child:

"Your community believes in you."

Whether you give $10 or $500, every donation helps another child begin the school year with confidence.

Together, we can ensure that no child starts school unprepared simply because their family is struggling financially.

Thank you for investing in the future of our community.

Help Houston Children Start School Ready to Learn

Every child deserves to walk into school with confidence. Your gift provides essential school supplies for children and families facing financial hardship across Greater Houston.
