I was pleased to find a few options for service in San Antonio that young kids could participate in. We volunteered two different times for the San Antonio Food Bank - once at their urban farm in the SW part of town, and once at their farm at the San Juan Mission. Both times we got to spread mulch since it was nearing winter and not planting season. The kids did awesome and really felt like they were making a difference because we could see our progress as we went along.
The other opportunity we found was stuffing Christmas bags for refugee teen girls through the Center for Refugee Services. We made up 100 bags to deliver and also got a tour of their offices where they teach English to Afghan families, distribute needed items, and provide other services.
