Thank you for clicking on this fundraising page to learn more about how you can be a Champion FORE our students in San Antonio. As you may know, I have worked for Communities In Schools of San Antonio (CIS-SA) for almost 3 years. I'm proud to work for CIS and i'm grateful you are taking time to learn more about our efforts.
If you don’t know much about CIS we work with students in over 100 schools across 12 school districts in San Antonio to support them and help them overcome any barriers to success. Whether it’s through academic support, help with attendance, assistance with basic needs, or mental health services and counseling, we are working hard to make sure the next generation is prepared to succeed and change the world.
While I don't work directly with students, their stories are a major piece of my job. See below to read a few of them!
We are currently raising money through the Champions Fore Charity fundraiser which will help us continue serving students and families in need. Please consider donating and helping us with this agency-wide fundraiser. I hope you will join me in becoming a Champion fore Kids! Thanks for your supporting me in reaching my fundraising goal and for being a part of our community of support!
Our Site Coordinators, Monica and Roxy, in Northside ISD have been teaching their students about where our food comes from, how we grow it, and how to garden! Gardens need good soil, regular watering, and patience. These are all important lessons for our students to learn, plus it has a pretty delicious reward!
Delivering Essentials to Families In Need
When the COVID-19 pandemic began to make its way through San Antonio last year, many of the inequities in our community came to the surface. From lack of food resources, transportation, medical care, and technology, our students and families needed support. Still today, our Site Coordinators are making deliveries of food, hygiene items, and other essentials while many students are still participating in virtual learning.
The pandemic has heightened stress and anxiety for many, including our students. Thankfully, our team of clinicians have been able to make the switch to virtual tele-health counseling and support students safely.

The passion LeAnne Rowley has for her job and the wonderful assistance CIS provides to so many students inspired me to give.
