🎒 Care Closets & Weekend Backpack Program: By the Numbers 📊
When students' basic needs are met, they are better prepared to learn, grow, and succeed. Thanks to the incredible support of our donors, volunteers, and community partners, the Tyler ISD Foundation made a significant impact during the 2025-2026 school year.

💙 By the Numbers:
🥫 13,200+ individuals fed through our Weekend Backpack Program
🎒 3,300+ backpacks filled with food and sent home with students
🙌 300+ volunteer hours dedicated to packing, organizing, and distributing resources to families in need

Every backpack represents a student who didn't have to worry about where their next meal would come from. Every volunteer hour reflects a community that cares. Every donation helps ensure students have the support they need to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Together, we are removing barriers, meeting essential needs, and creating opportunities for success for students and families.

❤️Thank you for making this impact possible.

Mr. Martinez delivered an exceptional speech at this year’s Tyler ISD Foundation’s, Night of Shining Stars event, an evening honoring our top graduates of Tyler ISD and their chosen distinguished educators. Read it here:

Martinez: Students remember when they are remembered - Tyler Morning Telegraph When I recently asked my younger son, Landry, who is graduating this year, which teacher he would honor if given the chance, his first response was, “Oh, this is a hard question.”
