Last Friday, we were very humbled to receive an extremely meaningful donation! Thanks to the City of San Antonio Department of Human Services, we are excited to announce the addition of a truck to our fleet which will haul the Mobile Changing Unit!!! We are extremely grateful to our volunteer drivers who used personal vehicles to get through the first 2 years. Having this truck removes a huge barrier for haul the Mobile Changing Unit to more events and gatherings furthering our mission to engage people with disabilities in community celebrations. We give special thanks to Councilwoman Adriana Rocha Garcia. Her advocacy and connections made this possible. We are filled with such gratitude. Thank you San Antonio! We'll see you at the Rodeo with the MCU in February!
