✨ Help The TEXAS T.O.Y.E Foundation Expand Behavioral Health, Education & Youth Empowerment Across Texas

Hello, my name is Lakisha R. Gibson, Co‑Founder and Executive Director of Teaching Our Youth Excellence (TOYE) and The TEXAS T.O.Y.E Foundation. I have dedicated my life to serving youth and families through education, behavioral health, trauma‑informed care, and community empowerment.

Every young person deserves access to quality education, healthcare, emotional support, and real opportunities — and TOYE exists to make that possible.

Why This Matters

Every day, we meet young people who are struggling with:

• mental and emotional health challenges
• lack of access to healthcare
• academic gaps
• trauma and instability
• limited career pathways


TOYE exists to bridge these gaps and give youth the support, structure, and opportunities they deserve.

What This $25,000 Will Do (Phase 1)

Your donation will help us:

1. Secure a larger office and program facility

A bigger space means more room for youth services, family support, and community programs.

2. Begin essential renovations

We need safe, functional rooms for behavioral‑health sessions, tutoring, S.T.E.A.M. activities, and workforce training.

3. Expand our youth programs immediately

Including:

• TOYE Health Services
• S.T.E.A.M. initiatives
• After‑school programs
• Workforce and apprenticeship training


This Phase‑1 funding is the foundation for everything that comes next.

Why We’re Expanding

Our programs are growing faster than our space. A larger building will allow us to:

• serve more youth and families
• expand behavioral‑health services
• build a dedicated S.T.E.A.M. innovation lab
• grow after‑school and enrichment programs
• create a community resource center
• offer job training and career pathways


This expansion will transform lives for years to come.

How You Can Help

Your support — whether $10, $50, or $500 — directly helps us secure the space we need to continue this mission.

Every donation moves us closer to a facility that will change the future for Texas youth.

Thank you for believing in this work and standing with us.
