COMMUNITY INITIATIVES

Back-to-School Supply Drive

Pathways Beyond Barriers is partnering with a local Houston apartment community to help students begin the school year prepared. Through this initiative, we will provide backpacks and grade-appropriate school supply kits to students across the property, supporting up to 400 students and families. We are also sponsoring five teachers’ classrooms with additional supplies to help them prepare for the school year.

Each student in the community will receive a supply kit built around what students actually need to walk into the school year prepared.
