āHonoring legacy. Serving community. Giving with dignity.ā
Since 2015, WWX17 has honored the birthday of Waymond II by activating care in his memoryāmobilizing winter essentials for our unhoused neighbors with dignity and intention.
The event that started it all, The WayWesX17 Homeless Project GiveāAway stands as the cornerstone of WWX17ās mission and the origin of its justiceārooted work.Ā
Now in its eleventh year ā and held this year on Waymond IIās birthday ā the GiveāAway continues to honor both Wesley and Waymond II through service, presence, and community care. This annual gathering provides winter essentials, survival gear, hygiene kits, and dignityācentered support to neighbors across Fort Worth, recognizing that you donāt have to be homeless to need help. By showing up for anyone facing hardship, instability, or crisis, the GiveāAway carries forward the legacy that sparked WWX17ās creation and continues to shape its impact across the city.
This year, weāre collecting:
⢠Personal toiletries
⢠Sleeping bags, blankets, tents
⢠Tote bags/backpacks
⢠Gently used books and toys
⢠Individually wrapped food & bottled water
⢠Notes of encouragementābecause words restore, too
Every item is more than a donation. Itās a transmission of love, a step toward systemic change, and a reminder that no one is forgotten.
Help Us Build the BluePrint. Give Warmth. Move Memory. Restore Dignity.
