The Woods Project is hosting our 12th annual Walk for The Woods Project event, presented by ENGIE, on Saturday, November 4, 2023 at BakerRipley- Ripley House.
The Walk is our largest fundraiser of the year and will help us provide life-changing leadership development opportunities to even more Houston high school students from low-income communities.
