Bay Area ST

Bay Area Service Teens created warm, cozy fleece blankets to comfort the youngest residents arriving at the shelters of Bay Area Turning Point and The Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Inc. Often, these children come with little more than the clothes on their backs, leaving behind their cherished belongings.

While individual teens have crafted these blankets, once a month, during our designated philanthropy day, the effort becomes a collective undertaking through our philanthropic program, Project Snuggle.

Thirty-one (31) fleece blankets were created following our membership meetings.

Thank you to Melanie Lovuola, our adult liaison, and Marley Auttonberry and Drew Garcia, our teen liaisons, for your leadership throughout 2025-2026!

After each membership meeting, the volunteers assemble special birthday boxes to bring a smile to the faces of kids who may not otherwise have the opportunity to celebrate their special day.

For 2025-2026, members assembled and delivered 280 Birthday in a Box bags to League City Elementary and McWhirter Elementary in Clear Creek ISD, and to K.E. Little Elementary and San Leon Elementary in Dickinson ISD for at-risk students in the Communities In Schools - Bay Area program.

Thank you to Judy Gordon and Trudy Kennedy, our adult liaisons, and Lauren Barrera, Alexia Hoang, and Andrew Kisner, our teen liaisons, for your leadership throughout 2025-2026!
