Program Expenses

Activity Supplies

In most cases, we purchase all of the supplies for our volunteer activities. These supplies include arts and crafts materials, gardening tools, kid-friendly cooking utensils, and more. We also provide our youth volunteers with a snack at the end of each family service activity.

Activity Space

We rent office space used for program staff to work and prepare, as well as space to host family service activities and meetings for our Service Learning and Youth Leadership Programs.

Activity Coordination

From managing the activity calendar, to preparing supplies, to supervising activities, our staff and Activity Leads work hard to provide the best service experience possible.
​

In-Kind Donations

We provide over $15,000 of in-kind donations to our partner organizations annually. For example, we purchase the food we provide at our activities that help feed the homeless in Central Texas.
