PRESS RELEASE: 2nd Annual Treats for Teachers
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SAN ANTONIO, TX – The San Antonio Bexar Necessities Lions Club (SABN Lions Club) is proud to announce its unique Treats for Teachers collection, designed specifically with our hardworking teachers in mind. Acknowledging the often-overlooked needs of teachers, the club has initiated this special collection to ensure that teachers have the necessary supplies for a successful academic year. Selected by last year’s recipient school, Scarbourgh Elementary, this year’s supplies will benefit Martha Mead Elementary in Northside ISD.
Mead Elementary is part of a special set of schools that offer classes and programs for children of asylum-seeking families from war torn countries. Most of these families have a member of the family who aided our US military and had to flee their home countries because of safety concerns.
The Treats for Teachers collection is unlike any other school supply drive, focusing solely on the needs and contributions of teachers. Frequently, students are the primary beneficiaries of school supply drives, but the SABN Lions Club recognizes the importance of empowering teachers with the tools they require.
A key component of this initiative is to alleviate the financial burden often carried by teachers, who regularly pay out of pocket to ensure their students have the essential supplies. The donated supplies will create a reserve for teachers to pull from when students run out, eliminating the need for teachers to dig into their own pockets.
Additionally, the SABN Lions Club is going beyond classroom needs, acknowledging that teachers, like everyone else, appreciate a quick snack during their breaks. Therefore, part of the collection will focus on stocking teachers’ break rooms with a variety of snacks, creating an enjoyable space for them to relax and recharge during their hard-earned breaks.
The SABN Lions Club invites individuals and businesses to participate in this important initiative. Donations of supplies and treats can be made through the wishlists on Amazon and Target.

The SABN Lions Club is confident in the positive impact this unique school supply collection will have on local teachers. By providing the necessary supplies and a well-stocked break room, the club aims to show appreciation for teachers and their commitment to education.
The SABN Lions Club is a pillar of the San Antonio community, consistently striving to serve and improve the conditions of those in need. This new initiative further solidifies their commitment to education and the welfare of all involved in the learning process.
