Our location Integrity Funeral Home at Forest Lawn Cemetery had an amazing time hosting a community back-to-school event in Houston this past Sunday, August 10th!

Together, we were thrilled to give away 500 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to help local students gear up for a fantastic school year. A big shoutout to the incredible 11 barbers who generously volunteered their time and provided 62 haircuts, looking sharp for the classroom!

The fun didn't stop there! We had a fantastic DJ spinning tunes, creative face-painting, delicious refreshments, and a wonderful array of vendors offering all sorts of goodies.
