Tutored and Gifted supports the Pleasant Grove community each year with a Back-to-School Uniform Drive that provides new and gently used school uniforms, shoes, and basic supplies to students in need. Volunteers collect, sort, and distribute clothing at local events and through partner schools, ensuring children start the school year prepared, confident, and ready to learn. The drive also offers fittings and size exchanges to make sure items are usable for the full school year.

Pleasant Grove is a neighborhood where many households face modest incomes. Recent local data indicate a median household income in the range of $35,000 to $45,000, lower than city and national medians; a significant share of families qualify for free or reduced-price school meals. Tutored and Gifted’s uniform drive helps fill gaps for those families by reducing clothing costs at a critical time in the school calendar, while fostering community engagement and support for student success.
