Happy Holidays from the Pete & Thomas Foundation!
This holiday season, we partnered with four incredible community partners to support Houston and San Antonio.
–Empower House served 100 families at the Annual Holiday Resource Fair in San Antonio. Through this event, families received essential health resources, vaccines, and holiday joy, including a photo with Santa and toys for kids. Learn more about their work at empowerhousesa.org.
–Thrive Youth Center hosted an Annual Holiday Party to create a memorable evening for 60 young adults ages 18 to 24, featuring bowling, a catered dinner by a local chef, and holiday stockings in San Antonio. Learn more about their impactful work at thriveyouthcenter.org.
–Pay Away the Layaway paid off layaway balances to bring holiday cheer to 50 families at CitiTrends in Houston. Families were able to take home the gifts they had planned for their loved ones, easing financial stress during the holiday season. Learn more about their work at payaway.org.
– Houston is a long-time community partner in Houston. Together, we helped assemble and delivered 1,450 gift bags to senior citizens, including 1,075 homebound clients, who felt seen, valued, and remembered during the holiday season. Learn more about their impactful work at ywcahouston.org.
