Write Start Project

Giving Teachers the "Write" Start

The United Way Write Start Project is a back-to-school initiative targeting those who make a difference in the lives of our children, the individuals who spend their days ensuring that our students succeed in school—teachers.

This year, the Write Start Project is supporting teachers in Northeast ISD.
