Support Everyone Home DC’s Back-to-School Initiative
July 18, 2026
Everyone Home DC’s annual back-to-school initiative will provide gift cards for their client parents and caregivers to make their own choices for their children’s back to school needs whether it’s school supplies, a new backpack, a pair of shoes, or a first-day outfit that helps a young scholar walk into school with confidence. Your monetary support gives something more than financial assistance, it gives them the dignity and flexibility to choose what is right for their children.
