Education is one of the primary ways that people from poor backgrounds get ahead in life. Yet every day, students go to school without the supplies they need to succeed. That's why LUPE is launching a school supplies drive to help children from Hidalgo County colonias get a hold of the supplies they need to start the year off on the right foot.
Contact your local LUPE office to arrange drop-off of school supplies:
