Introduction:
Hey there, San Antonio! My name is Alex Ruiz, and at only 19 years old, I have founded a nonprofit called Ruiz School Supplies. Before I delve into the mission of our nonprofit, I want to shed light on a dire situation within our San Antonio community. Over the past few months, hundreds of thousands of dollars in budget cuts have been made in the education sector, directly impacting our children. We’ve seen the closures of elementary and middle schools, and the uncertain futures of our graduates. The San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD) alone has voted to close 15 schools this year. But we cannot sit by and let this continue. It’s time we take matters into our own hands, which is why Ruiz School Supplies was created: to ensure our children’s future is not just maintained but flourishes.
About & Mission statement:
Ruiz School Supplies was founded and established this year with the help of my family as board members. Though we are still developing operational and social establishments to ensure our nonprofit can flourish, our mission is significant. Our mission is to stand up for our children by ensuring they have a full education, not a diminished one. That’s why we’ve been working on ways to support our children, their teachers, and the schools that house them, ensuring all have access to the necessary tools for a complete education. This has become a challenge for most schools, leading to parents spending money they don’t have and teachers paying out of their own pockets on already reduced salaries. Consequently, our children suffer as their second home is shut down. At Ruiz School Supplies, we are not just raising funds; we are making a statement. Join us and help support this nonprofit to build a strong and complete foundation, one pencil at a time.
