StandUp for Kids
San Antonio Chapter
Our wish list...December, 2007

One-Time Wishes

• Storage facility willing to donate an air conditioned location for storage (rented storage unit or other available space). Our current monthly cost is $75 for a 10x10 unit downtown.  This money takes away from our ability to help more kids.
• A sponsor for our membership in the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce.  We could provide your logo upon our website as a major contributor to our local program.
• One easel for presentations.
• Two custom Sandwich Board displays.
• A marketing printing provider of custom marketing brochures.
• A laptop for the program in order to track volunteer schedules and statistics of the homeless and street kids.
• A projector for training and presenting our organization
• An outreach van to be used for our travels in the city of San Antonio. With this wish, we would prominently place your logo upon our vehicle.
• Our ultimate goal in the program is to setup an outreach center.  In order to do so, we need a location, preferably near downtown to house the center.

Ongoing Wishes

• Our wish is for great leaders and volunteers that will help our program grow in strength, numbers, and ability to help more kids.
• We hope to host social functions for the kids. We need sponsors to help us provide activities and events.
• Baby Formula samples – small carrying sizes needed
• Diapers for our young children, all sizes needed.
• Hair brushes and hair controlling items (bands, wraps, clips, etc.)
• Tampons & pads - non deodorant
• Razors for shaving
• Shampoo & conditioners in small travel sizes (hit up the hotels!!)
• Gallon Sized Zip-lock bags
• Sandwich sized brown bags
• VIA bus passes are essential to our kids. They are often the only the only alternative to either walking or not showing up.
• Phone cards with small amounts. We do find kids in need of contacting someone and these phone cards can facilitate this.
• Dining cards to local restaurant chains, so our kids can get a hot meal.
• Our wish is for cash contributions. All money donations will go to buying food, clothes, blankets for the kids, and other organizational needs.
• If a sponsor donates a van,
• We will need graphics, both ours and our sponsors, placed on the van.
• We will need an insurance provider.
• We will need gas and maintenance for the vehicle.

We are a tax exempt organization as described IRS Code Section 501 (c) (3). We will make all possible accommodations to recognize those giving donations and sponsorships. These may include, but are certainly not limited to, logos on t-shirts and printed materials.
