Foundation Communities

We are still incredibly far from our goal of raising $100,000 for our annual Back to School Drive, and today is the final day! Let's see how close we can get with a big final push. Donate today at foundcom.org/btsd. It's worth it to make sure the students in our 16 on-site Learning Centers have everything they need for another successful school year. Thank you for supporting them!

For the Summer program at our on-site Learning Centers, the theme has been "The Future is Now" as they focused on STEAM, Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math. This video shows some budding engineers designing and building cardboard roller coasters at Southwest Trails. Please don't forget to support the programs at our 16 Learning Centers by donating to our Back to School Drive at foundcom.org/btsd.

We are currently less than 25 percent of the way toward our goal of raising $100,000 for our Back to School Drive... with less than two days to go! Please take a moment from your busy day to make a donation at foundcom.org/btsd. Our Learning Centers always serve healthy snacks to students as soon as they arrive from school. It raises their energy level and ability to focus on learning and having fun.

We are still well short of our $100,000 goal for our Back to School Drive. Please donate today at foundcom.org/btsd, and share our posts with your friends. Your donations help us keep our 16 on-site Learning Centers stocked with school supplies, not only for our After-School and Summer programs, but to make sure our students always have the supplies they need to continue to excel in school.

Our children are growing up in an age of innovation. That's why Foundation Communities strives to equip our on-site Learning Centers with technological devices. Your donation at foundcom.org/btsd during our Back to School Drive this week will not only help students excel in school, but also prepare them for the jobs of the future. Please help us reach our goal of raising $100,000 by donating and sharing these posts with your friends. Thank you!

We're excited about our new partnership with Mary Lee Foundation, a longtime Austin advocate for people living with disabilities and others. We're taking over and redeveloping most of the affordable housing on Lamar Square, Mary Lee's home, renovating existing apartments and building another 400! Read more about it at foundcom.org/blog.

Our Back to School Drive week is here and we have a LOT of work to do to reach our goal of raising $100,000 to support the students in our 16 Learning Centers. Please donate at foundcom.org/btsd, and encourage your friends to do so as well by sharing our posts this week. In our Learning Centers, we encourage students to celebrate their individuality. That obviously extends to the backpacks they choose. You should hear how they express their pride in their backpacks in this video. Let's send 'em back to school with great backpacks and everything they need for another successful school year.

Did you know students in Foundation Communities on-site Learning Centers score an average grade point average of 3.67 in school? You can help them keep up the good work in this school year by donating to our Back to School Drive at foundcom.org/btsd.

Drop off Day for our Back to School Drive finished strong with our friends with JP Morgan Chase delivering 91 backpacks filled with supplies… so many they had to make two trips! Thank you! The big week for our drive starts Monday, but you can support the students in our Learning Centers today by donating at foundcom.org/btsd.

Another 24 stuffed backpacks just arrived for our Back to School Drive. foundcom.org/btsd. Thank you general contractor extraordinaire BEC Austin for supporting the students at the Homestead Oaks Learning Center.
