EL PASO: YOUR LOCAL NON-PROFIT
Over a Decade of Positive Change
About the 15:11 project
Since our establishment in 2010, we’ve been proud to serve El Paso as a faith-driven non-profit organization. A dozen years ago, our family discovered a sobering truth: thousands of children, ages 1 to 18, in our beloved city wake up to empty hands on Christmas morning. That revelation sparked an unwavering commitment to take action.
Over the past thirteen years, what began as a family endeavor to brighten the lives of five children has blossomed into a collective effort. Today, we’re joined by numerous dedicated volunteers who generously contribute their time, resources, and funds. Together, we’ve made a profound impact on the El Paso community, donating over 15,000 gifts to students and adults during the holiday season. We’ve provided not only toys but also essential items like food, clothing, heaters, and jackets, helping to bring warmth and joy to our El Paso neighbors.
Join us in our mission to make a difference in El Paso’s community. Your support means the world to us, and together, we can continue to spread hope and happiness.
CUIDANDO A NUESTRA GENTE
El Paso is not just the place we call home; it’s a community we deeply care about. Within our city lies the poorest school district in the entire State of Texas. But with the support of strategic community partners, generous corporate sponsors, countless individual sponsors, and our dedicated volunteers, we’ve made it our mission to look after those who may seem voiceless, suffering, and hurting.
Our hearts are committed to alleviating the burden of poverty that hangs heavy in our community. Many of our students face dire circumstances, lacking even the most basic necessities such as a warm coat during the chilly months from November to February. We’ve also encountered homes without heating systems throughout the harsh winter. This reality was one we could not turn a blind eye to.
Thanks to the compassion of our sponsors and the love of community members, each family now receives a minimum of one blanket per household every year. Additionally, in partnership with our community allies, the 15:11 Project steps in to provide space heaters for homes lacking a heat source. Together, we’re making a significant difference in the lives of those who need it most in our beloved El Paso.
