YMCA OPERATION BACKPACK

Help us make a difference in the lives of youth in your community.

The YMCA is uniquely suited to meet community needs with initiatives aimed at empowering youth, building healthier families and fostering more inclusive communities. We are focused on the continued and ongoing effort of creating not just physical space, but developmental and emotional well-being opportunities for people who truly need it most.

For 19 years, YMCA Operation Backpack has filled a critical need in communities across the Houston area providing school supplies for children in need, filling them with hope for a brighter future as they start the school year.

In 2022, the investment of many provided 30,000 children the opportunity to return to learning with the tools to be successful.
