Give Now Get Help

Summer 2024

June 10 – July 19

1 in 5 students struggle with access to clean clothes, which often prevents students from coming to school. When students aren’t at school, they can’t learn, grow, and reach their full potential! United Way of Greater Houston supports students and families in the Greater Houston region to help make sure they have what they need and can focus on learning – and we need your help!

Help United Way prepare children for a great school year by donating NEW pairs of Socks and Undies kids and families who need your help. You’ll help give students the confidence and resources they need for the upcoming school year.

 

Participate by donating items or by hosting a drive within your company or community organization! Check out more details below and view our Amazon gift list to purchase new items from our wishlist.

Host a Drive

 

A great way to support Project Undercover is to run a drive within your organization or community group!  Here’s how you can get started today.

  1. Identify a Project Undercover lead from your organization. Contact us at ProjectUndercover@unitedwayhouston.org to let us know you’d like to be part of the effort.
  2. Decide when to kick off and conclude your Project Undercover drive. Project Undercover will run from June 10th to July 19th.
  3. Share the Amazon gift list or place collection bins at your office! United Way will provide collection baskets and coordinate with you on drop-off and pick-up. Encourage your employees, group members to add a gift note with your organization’s name so we can let you know how many donations came from your group!
  4. Have fun communicating Project Undercover to your colleagues. Get teams to compete by floor or division. Encourage employees to include their families in the project by shopping together.
