Have you ever wondered what you would do if faced with an impossible situation with nowhere to turn? Imagine you're a single parent, working two jobs with children to feed. Or you recently lost your job. Sometimes you have to choose between food or rent. Where do you turn for help? As you read this, our neighbors in need are coming to PATH (People Attempting to Help) today looking for rent and utility assistance, lifesaving emergency prescription assistance, vision and dental care, food or affordable housing. Each person meets with a caseworker to determine needs, identify solutions and ultimately, leaves feeling they have a voice and someone who cares. Your gift provides hope and helps people get back on their feet and work toward lives of stability and opportunity. Founded 40 years ago by Mrs. Gertrude Windsor, PATH remains committed to offering kindness and respect, providing relief and empowering local families and individuals. 100% of funds raised through East Texas Giving Day stay in our area to help our East Texas neighbors in need. PATH serves 120-150 families each day and 25,666 people in 2024. PATH is recognized for its commitment to accountability and transparency.
