A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO
Marjorie Murat
School is back in session and Dallas Afterschool is hard at work training our Out-of-School Time professionals and providing them the resources necessary to support students. I am encouraged not only by getting back to in-person activities, but by the number of new partners that have reached out in need of our help. This reinforces the importance of our work and the collective impact we have on students in our community.

Thank you for your support of Dallas Afterschool. We appreciate your partnership!

Sincerely,
EARLY GIVING IS OPEN!

THE SCHOOL YEAR KICKED OFF WITH
RESOURCES FOR ALL!
Last month we hosted our annual Resource Giveaway to equip our partner sites with back-to-school tools and necessities. We had a great time seeing our returning partners - and meeting our new partners. We're thankful students are back in the classroom and motivated to help them catch up and keep up this fall!
