Western Wealth Capital’s We’ve Got Your Back Program Starts 4,000 Students Off on the Right Foot

Online or in-person, students in 48 communities given school supplies for a successful start to school. 

Phoenix, Ariz. (Aug. 11, 2020) – Western Wealth Capital (WWC), a growth-oriented real estate investment company, is pleased to announce the company and its local partner network have distributed over 4,000 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to children at 48 communities in several markets across the U.S.

The fifth annual We’ve Got Your Back program is a WWC-led initiative that was created to help start school-age children off on the right foot. WWC staff personally purchased school supplies from area stores and organized individual backpack kits. On July 30, the backpacks were distributed to WWC’s multifamily communities in the U.S., including Phoenix, Houston, Dallas and Atlanta areas.

“More than 20,000 hard-working individuals lay their heads each night at our properties, many worried about how to help their children succeed amidst so much uncertainty. We are committed to making our residents feel supported, with one less thing to worry about as they help their children navigate this new academic year,” says Janet LePage, Chief Executive Officer of WWC. “This is part of our WWC promise – to do business on human terms, and not on term sheets alone.”

The year-over-year growth of the We’ve Got Your Back program has meant that each year the initiative positively impacts more and more children and families. This year, leftover backpacks from the drive were donated to local schools in need and non-profits serving underprivileged children.

“Seeing the children’s reactions is priceless, but We’ve Got Your Back is also a great way to personally connect parents and each of our community’s management staff, ” says LePage. “This initiative is part of our broader goal of wanting to create better communities, which goes beyond monetary investment. We want to create communities that are good places to live for our residents, while providing a rewarding and empowering place to work for our team members.”

In 2016 the initial program gave out 450 school backpacks and generated many smiles from kids, parents and WWC staff alike. Overall, the program has provided more than 10,000 backpacks to school-age children living in WWC communities, with the surplus donated to deserving non-profits. WWC has grown the program’s impact every year, providing more than $140,000 in supplies over the past five years.

LePage added, “WWC thanks our local network of property managers, commercial brokers, vendors and investors for eagerly stepping up to support this year’s We Got Your Back program. Providing kids with the tools and confidence they need, creates space for learning and that learning will change our future.”
