Back to School 2026 – Host a Drive!
This summer, over 400 children in SAMMinistries’ housing programs will worry about how they will prepare to go back to school. From school uniforms and clothes, to backpacks and supplies, families can struggle to make sure that their children have everything needed to have a successful school year.
You can sponsor children’s new school clothing, supplies, and other school-related needs. Together, we can ensure every kid feels loved and supported in their next school year!
Will you provide the tools they need to be prepared?

From July 1 through July 31, all individual monetary donations to SAMMinistries will be matched by the Wade Richmond Foundation dollar-for-dollar, up to a total of $100,000. Please note that to qualify for this match, gifts must be direct monetary contributions received during this window, as pledges are not eligible. Your matched gift goes twice as far in providing trauma-informed care and opening doors to brighter futures for families overcoming homelessness.
