Assisting At-Risk Youth in Southeast Texas
More than one in five children live below the poverty line in Texas, and roughly one in seven young people between the ages of 18 and 25 are considered “disconnected” because they do not have employment and are not attending school. The O’Donohoe Agency believes that every child, regardless of background, should be given equal opportunities, and we are launching a campaign to make sure all the young people in the Galveston area have access to resources that will help them succeed in school and in life.
We are so hopeful to be able to fund some of the relief needed by Galveston children to overcome the devastating circumstances of poverty in their lives! Poverty is a critical issue because living in poverty significantly limits a family’s ability to provide adequate support and resources to their children. We want to offer hope and relief. In Texas, 22.2% of children were living in poverty last year. Even though the challenge is huge… there’s much that we can do. “Being a family man myself, I can’t imagine a reality where I couldn’t support my children. Our agency is going to do everything we can to give these children a brighter future,” says Sean O’Donohoe, agency owner.
