For more than 20 years, SA YES (San Antonio Youth Educational Support Project) has helped thousands of elementary school students get the educational tools they need to succeed. At the beginning of each school year, the nonprofit’s Back to Basics Project provides free school supplies to Title 1 elementary schools in San Antonio, Austin (Austin YES ), and Corpus Christi (CC YES). Title 1 schools receive additional funding from state agencies to provide extra educational support to ensure that state standards are being met. SA YES Executive Director Danielle Gunter said 95 % of the schools they serve have a Title 1 status that is 90 % or higher, and the other 5 % fall in the 80% range.
