OUR IMPACT
HOPE LOOKS LIKE SHOWING UP.
For 16 years, The 15:11 Project has shown up for students and families across the Borderland with practical support, compassion, and consistency.
What began with helping a handful of children has grown into year-round care for thousands of students and families. Through the generosity of local volunteers, schools, businesses, nonprofits, and community partners, we help meet practical needs with dignity, from food and clothing to school supplies, winter essentials, emergency assistance, and more.
