City Year San Antonio’s 2021 Idealist of the Year
For 25 years, City Year AmeriCorps members have powerfully served the San Antonio community. They put the well-being of the students in the San Antonio Independent School District at the forefront of everything they do each and every day. I have been a fan of City Year San Antonio’s work from the beginning, and I am thrilled to join in their 25th Anniversary Ripples of Hope Celebration honoring the Power of the Red Jacket.
As a graduate of Sam Houston High School, I know the critical role AmeriCorps members play in the lives of our students. The young people in the Red Jacket make a difference. Through their dedication, perseverance, and willingness to show up every day, they help our students gain confidence in themselves, grow academically, and reach their fullest potential. A City Year AmeriCorps member in their Red Jacket is a steady force San Antonio and our students are fortunate to have, particularly this year, as we all work together to navigate the effects of COVID-19.
