Bay Area Service Teens oversees seven philanthropic programs – Basic Kneads, Birthday in a Box, Cause for Paws, Crafted with Care, Notes for Folks, Ready for School Support, and Project Snuggle.

Basic Kneads

In collaboration with Bay Area Service League, address food insecurity by preparing Snack Attack Packs monthly for students identified as homeless in Deer Park, La Porte, and Texas City ISDs.  Donate and volunteer at two local food pantries and participate in the Galveston County Food Bank and St. Thomas the Apostle Episcopal Church’s monthly food distribution day.

Crafted with Care
