We’re excited to invite you to 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.

Because of each and every one of you, we were able to raise a record setting $262,520 in support of our Elizabethtown program!

We are particularly grateful that we were able to raise $26,800 to provide the beds and kitchen tables that help make an apartment a home for our new Elizabethtown families.

A big heartfelt thank you to all our sponsors, vendors, donors, and attendees for making this success possible. Your support is transforming lives!

I want to thank Chief Humphrey, the Louisville Metro Police Department, UofL’s police force and all of the law enforcement professionals who have worked tirelessly to bring us to this moment.

While the announcement of an arrest provides important answers about this tragedy, nothing can change the heartbreaking reality that two vibrant young women, Iyanna Warr and Trinity Durham, lost their lives.

Iyanna and Trinity were best friends. They were mothers. They were young women working to build better lives for themselves and their children. Like so many of our participants, they came to Family Scholar House because they wanted something more: education, opportunity, stability, and a different future for their families.

Today our thoughts remain with Iyanna and Trinity’s families and with the two young children who will grow up without their mothers.

In the 18 years since we opened our first campus, Family Scholar House has been a place where student parents and their children come seeking hope and opportunity. We will continue doing everything we can to make it a place where they find both.
