SHARE Campaign

Project Row Houses SHARE Campaign

Today’s challenging economic times have serious implications for Project Row Houses (PRH) and the Third Ward. PRH can only continue to survive with the support and generosity of the entire community.

This year Project Row Houses’ SHARE Campaign acknowledges that we all SHARE a future and we all SHARE the opportunity to participate in creating a better tomorrow. Your contribution, your participation, will ensure Project Row Houses’ programs thrive for the next 15 years. 

Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

For more information on how to contribute call PRH at 713.526.7662
