School is Cool!
Every August we help the children in our programs start the school year ready: a uniform, shoes, and a backpack full of supplies.

About School is Cool
We kick off a back-to-school drive and collect through the day of the party. We try to give every school-age child in our programs a school uniform, shoes, and a backpack full of the right supplies. Each year about 300 current and former clients join a two-hour party with food, games, and catching up before the bags are handed out. You can give school supplies, backpacks, or money for uniforms and shoes.
Questions? Call (214) 821-8510 or email info@sharedhousing.org.
