GOAL REACHED AND EXCEEDED!

A RECIPE TO A SUCCESSFUL FUNDRAISER:
 
Take a group of dedicated and creative volunteers, accept lots of donations, advertise like crazy, acknowledge support, and add a dash of love!

WE WANT TO THANK EVERYONE THAT HAS CONTRIBUTED THEIR TIME AND MONEY TO OUR KIDS' PROGRAM! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

 
Because of one generous anonymous donor, we were able to push forward and exceed our goal reaching $561.00! Above is a statement from the donor:
"Hello, Here is my donation to help you reach your $500 goal for your afterschool program. Thank you for all the work you do. You change lives"

 
 
Thank you for the generosity and loving spirit! We will continue to grow and improve our programs to improve the lives of the children in the San Marcos Housing Authority community!
 
We believe in our children and that no limitations should bound them if they are to succeed.
 
WE ARE CONTINUING TO ACCEPT DONATIONS! LET'S SEE HOW FAR WE CAN GO! ANY LITTLE BIT HELPS! PLEASE CALL MARIA @ 512-396-3367!

Raising Funds for Our Kids' Programs


A busy April Saturday turned into a successful fundraising drive! Our efforts to raise money for the San Marcos Housing Authority After-School Programs with an Indoor Rummage Sale brought our community and our volunteers from Texas State much closer together with a common goal. Many residents of the San Marcos Housing Authority donated goods and some food to sell. Many volunteers from Texas State included students from the Social Work department, Family and Child Development Department, and the Bobcat Leadership Board Student Support Services. We still are short about $100! If you would like to donate, please call Maria at 512-396-3367. ALL PROCEEDS GO TOWARDS OUR AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM!
