Thank you to this incredible group of volunteers from Leadership San Antonio (LSA) and our young volunteers from Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Texas!

We had a fantastic time together prepping lunch boxes for the new school year, snack bags for the Harvey E. Najim Children’s Enrichment Center summer program, and painting rocks of encouragement for our campus.

We loved meeting you all and appreciate your time and energy shared!
