LAS VEGAS, Nevada, July 23, 2026 — Words Are Rich Foundation announced that it will host its annual Back-to-School Community Event on Friday, August 7, at Pearson Community Center in Las Vegas, where more than 50 local students are expected to receive shoes, school supplies, and meals ahead of the upcoming school year.
The Las Vegas-based nonprofit said the event is part of its ongoing efforts to support youth and families in Southern Nevada through practical assistance, mentorship, and community outreach programs. According to the organization, the annual event is intended to help students prepare for the start of the school year by addressing basic back-to-school needs and connecting families with local support resources.
Students participating in the event are expected to receive brand-new shoes, school supplies, and a hot meal. Words Are Rich Foundation said the program is focused on serving families in the local community while reinforcing its broader work centered on youth development and family support.
“This event is intended to provide local students with essential items they can use as they begin the new school year,” said Oli Porter, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Words Are Rich Foundation. “It also gives the organization an opportunity to connect with families and continue building community-based support through its programs and partnerships.”
In addition to the Back-to-School Community Event, Words Are Rich Foundation organizes recurring outreach efforts throughout the year in Las Vegas. The organization holds a monthly food distribution on the fourth Thursday of each month from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at Parkdale Community & Senior Center, located at 3200 Ferndale Street in Las Vegas. It also conducts the WAR on Homelessness Outreach on the fourth Saturday of each month, serving individuals experiencing homelessness throughout the Las Vegas Valley through the distribution of meals, hygiene items, clothing, and other essential supplies.
Words Are Rich Foundation also partners with The Way Foundation on community outreach initiatives in Southern Nevada. According to the organization, transportation support provided through that partnership helps volunteers coordinate service activities and expand the reach of monthly outreach efforts across the Las Vegas area.
The nonprofit said its youth-focused work also includes mentorship and leadership development programming designed to provide guidance, community engagement opportunities, and personal development support for young people. The Back-to-School Community Event is one of several initiatives the organization uses to support youth and families through direct service and local partnerships.
