As we continue along life’s path, we find ourselves enduring the relentless heat of the South
Texas summer. These so-called “dog days” are not only uncomfortable—they can be
dangerous, particularly for our elderly and disabled residents. I urge everyone to take
precautions: stay hydrated, remain indoors as much as possible, and check in on your neighbors
who may be more vulnerable during this time.
On a brighter note, I am pleased to share some encouraging news. The Trull Foundation has
generously awarded us a $5,000 grant dedicated to enhancing emergency preparedness and
response efforts for children in our rural communities. Our CEO, Mr. Tony Sandoval, will be
developing a comprehensive budget to ensure these funds are utilized effectively and
responsibly.
In addition, we have received promising indications that another grant—this one nearing
$40,000—may soon be awarded to us by a separate agency. Should this come to fruition, it will
mark a significant step forward in our mission to serve and uplift our communities.
We remain committed to progress, resilience, and service. Thank you for your continued trust
and support. Wishing you all safety, good health, and a hopeful future.
Warm regards,
Jason Peña
President
August 5, 2025
