WE BELIEVE
When essential needs are met in the community, families will flourish
When we put a smile on a child’s face, we all smile
When we clothe a child, we give them confidence to succeed in school
When we inspire a young person, we can change the path of their lives
WE ARE
Located at 2611 West Avenue, Assistance League of San Antonio, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, serves the San Antonio community. We strive to transform lives of children and adults through our various programs. Nearly 50 percent of the funds needed for these programs are raised through Thrift House sales.

Our History
Since its charter in 1988, Assistance League of San Antonio member volunteers have consistently provided quality service to the San Antonio area. During the 2022-2023 year, 478 members contributed over 67,000 hours to serve over 31,000 children and adults in our community.
Attempting to meet previously underserved needs, Assistance League of San Antonio supports seven programs. These programs provide services to every age range in the community.
The Thrift House is our main source of funding. The shop is staffed and managed entirely by our member volunteers. Donations are always welcome and are tax deductible.
The Bexar Hugs Auxiliary, which became active in 1995, provides school boxes and school supplies for all Operation School Bell® children.
