The City of San Antonio Resource Center is a small space activated in partnership with other nonprofits to provide basic human necessities such as hot meals, snacks, water, medicine, clothing and resources to help these individuals reach their destinations safely. On a daily basis, the center accommodates up to 80 migrants. All who have volunteered and made donations are greatly appreciated.
