🧡Help a Scholar Start the School Year Strong!💙

A new school year is just around the corner, and we're working to ensure every Hope Ignites Phoenix scholar has the tools they need to succeed.

Last year, it cost approximately $685 per scholar to cover essentials like uniforms, books, school supplies, and school fees. As our program grows, so does the need.

You can help by: Making a financial gift, Purchasing items from our Amazon Wish List, or Hosting a supply drive through your workplace, faith community, or neighborhood

Donations and supplies are needed by July 27.

Together, we can help every scholar walk into the classroom feeling prepared, confident, and ready to learn.
