If you or your business are looking for a worthwhile organization to support in 2018, please consider Blue Cares, the San Antonio Police Officers Association’s community outreach initiative.

August is an important month for Blue Cares. It’s the time when children prepare to go back to school and Blue Cares needs to be there when they do.

Blue Cares is seeking volunteers to help package healthy snack packs for elementary students, deliver them, and even provide some of the food to include in the snack packs.

A sobering report from the Center for Public Priorities reminds us all here at Blue Cares why programs like ours are so important.

Project Caring for Juniors (Project CJ) is a food assistance program that benefits students from low-income families who attend Title One elementary schools in San Antonio. The goal of Project CJ is to help ensure that children have healthy snacks and enough food options during their time away from school, including weekends.

Every day, when they put on the badge, police officers try to make the city of San Antonio a safer, better place to live. They are members of the San Antonio Police Officer’s Association (SAPOA) and proud public servants, so their duty to make a difference in the community, carries on, even when the badge comes off.

The mission of Blue Cares is to provide year around services and assistance to underprivileged, low-income, at risk children and their families. Blue Cares makes a difference in people’s lives with donations given by the local community.
