We are incredibly grateful for our wonderful partnership with Pre-K 4 SA and the amazing community we serve.❤️
Reflecting on the heartwarming AVANCE - San Antonio Mother's Day Luncheon, a beautiful testament to the power of community and partnership. Each year, this event raises vital funds for AVANCE – San Antonio programs, aimed at breaking the cycle of poverty through innovative initiatives like Parent-Child Education, Caminos al Futuro workforce development, and more. 💫 This year AVANCE honored Marise McDermott, President & CEO of the @wittemuseum, and Alma Ramos, AVANCE alumna and Instruction Coach, whose dedication to community and family is truly inspiring. We're proud to partner with them to make a difference in the lives of families. 💗 #AVANCE #PreK4SA #CommunityPartnership CommunityImpact #SanAntonio
