Mission
Back to Basics has been enriching the lives of underprivileged elementary school aged children in Palm Beach County for over 40 year. Our mission is to enable children to attend school with Dignity and be ready to learn, by providing NEW Uniforms, Sneakers, Socks and Underwear for children in need.
Activities or mission (Part I)
The mission of Back to Basics is to enable children to attend school with Dignity and be ready to learn, by providing NEW Uniforms, Sneakers, Socks and Underwear for children in need.

The Back to Basics Uniform Program provides over 20,000 new school uniforms to elementary and middle school students identified by school administrators as experiencing financial instability or homelessness - circumstances that often contribute to chronic absenteeism. A clean, well-fitting uniform can determine whether a child attends school or stays home out of embarrassment. Teachers consistently report that students who receive uniforms return to class more engaged, more confident, and more willing to participate. In 2025, we provide 22,000 uniforms tops and bottoms to students across 60 schools and 5 outreach programs in Palm Beach County, ensuring children start the school year prepared, confident, and able to focus on learning. These schools serve some of the highest-need student populations in the county, with free/reduced lunch enrollment rates exceeding 70. The Uniform Program is supported primarily

The Back to Basics Angel Program continues to provide the Basics that children need to attend school - NEW Sneakers, Socks, Underwear - and because the program centers around the holidays, we also include a toy in each Angel Gift Bag. For many children, these may be the only gifts they receive. In 2025, we delivered 10,764 Angel gifts, restoring dignity, boosting self-esteem, and helping children return to school after winter break with renewed confidence. The Angel Program relies heavily on community participation from businesses, churches, organizations, and individuals who adopt children each year. Last year, the community adopted over 7,100 children, while Back to Basics provided gifts for the remaining 3,700 children with support from local foundations, which ensure that every child referred to us receives these essential items.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
