Leading Leopard Market
The Boujourne Foundation is a proud continued partner in this year long initiative along with Goya Cares and the Houston Food Bank as we believe that food accessibility should be available to all students and the local community at all times. We helped to transform an empty room within the school into a full blown food pantry and market where students can rely on this food resource anytime during the school year. Along with Leadership Houston Class XLI, the enhanced Leading Leopard Market will aid in increasing the number of families fed while providing key educational components that position the students to excel in school and develop skills for future retail job opportunities. Nutrition is Key to Success!

Game Room
We have created a free, accessible, and safe game room play space for the students who present good attendance and grades every six weeks to help encourage positive reinforcement. Currently, 86.5% of students are considered at risk of dropping out of school, and 52.1% of students are enrolled in bilingual and English language learning programs. We have created a space where murals, bright colors, and positive affirmations are displayed throughout the room. There are two gaming systems, large televisions, lounge seating, board games, a ping pong table, along with sport court flooring to set the game room tone. We are so excited that artist Israel Rodriguez graciously donated a Jeremy Peña Mural to the room.

Ribbon Cutting
​We hosted a big ribbon cutting for the Game Room Launch this year.

We would like to thank our corporate sponsors for being a part of the successful event. We hope to continue the momentum with inspiring other campuses to foster leadership skills, mentorship and programming provided by the community and its leaders.
