About SA YES: Since 1998, SA YES has been distributing school supplies and classroom grants to local students at Title 1 Elementary schools. By providing each student with their own school supply kit, they hope the act serves as a reminder that each student is important to our community and the importance of being prepared to learn and grow.
About Austin YES: To help more communities in South Texas, SA YES expanded by opening an Austin branch in 2018. Their mission continues to be to support low-income students in Austin through educational outreach of free school supplies and technology grants. In their inaugural year, Austin YES supported 7,500 local students with the basic school supplies they needed to start the year off right – confident and motivated.
