Reverse Trick or Treat October 29

Volunteer for one of our favorite traditions at Family Scholar House - Reverse Trick or Treat. Instead of kids going door to door, volunteers like you deliver treats and smiles directly to the families we serve. It’s a special way to make Halloween brighter and safer. This year’s Reverse Trick or Treat will take place on October 29, 2026. We will begin at 5:30 to give our families time to settle after school. We’re asking volunteers to come between 5 and 5:15. Volunteers are welcome to wear non-scary costumes and please bring goodies to hand out. Please email [email protected] by October 12 if you’ll be joining us again and how many will be in your group. This will help determine the location for your group.

While we grieve over the tragedy at our Louisville Scholar House Campus, we continue to find hope and even joy in the good things that are happening around us. At Family Scholar House Houston, Latasha McDowell, a current resident at The Carpenter and mother of two young children, was recently notified that she is on the President’s List at Texas Tech University! She also recently began working at The Harris Center and loves it. Latasha is working toward her Bachelors degree in Human Science and currently holds a 4.0 GPA. She is a joy to work with and we’re so proud of her accomplishments.

We want to thank our community for reaching out to support Family Scholar House participant families and staff as we grieve the loss of two of our participants, who were killed at our Louisville Scholar House campus this morning.

In 18 years of providing affordable housing, we have never experienced a violent tragedy on any of our campuses. But that history does not lessen the devastation of two young women losing their lives.

Two young children have lost their mothers — mothers who were working diligently to earn the education and credentials needed for meaningful healthcare careers that would allow them to give back to their community while providing a better life for their families. One was planning a career in forensic science; the other was pursuing a nursing career specializing in geriatric care.

Single parents come to Family Scholar House because they want a better life for themselves and their families. They come with dreams and goals, and with the support of our team and our educational partners, they work hard to achieve them.

Today’s tragedy is a heartbreaking reminder of the lives and futures represented by every family we serve. It also reminds us why Family Scholar House is so committed to helping student parents break the cycles of poverty and homelessness, create new cycles of success, and instill the value of education in their children.

Thank you for the many caring emails and calls checking on our families and our team. We are grateful for your concern and support.

Most of all, we ask that you please keep the children of our two participants, their families, and all of our Family Scholar House families in your prayers.

Cathe Dykstra, CEO

Here’s a friendly reminder that the Family Scholar House “Back to School Pack a Backpack Drive” is in high gear. You can help students who are back in school and their parents by buying a backpack and filling it with the supplies they’ll need for school — items like index cards composition notebooks, highlighters, binders (1”- 3”), hand sanitizers, pencils, crayons, Kleenex, folders, pens, notebooks, planners and calendars. Once you’re through shopping, backpacks can be dropped off at Louisville Scholar House, 403 Reg Smith Circle in Louisville. And remember — you can shop on Amazon and have your donated items shipped directly to Family Scholar House. However you shop, thank you for helping get our kids — and parents — off to a strong start this school year!
