Congratulations to the three 2012 Summer Team Up Challenge Champions. These three student led groups will receive $10,000 for their work in the community. The ARC of San Antonio helped families on food assistance and home bound seniors feed their pets. Destination Imagination renovated the sensory therapy room at Child Safe. Wreaths Across America fundraised throughout the summer to try and put a wreath on every veteran’s grave at Ft. Sam Houston National Cemetery during the holidays.
