Texas Gives Back

Texas Gives Back to SAYLWe are very pleased to announce our recent partnership with “Texas Gives Back”, a local company, headquartered here in San Antonio. This company offers great online deals from local businesses at 50-90% off regular prices, but unlike other such sites operating in our area, this one gives back to our community. In fact, Texas Gives Back contributes 7% of the purchase price of every gift voucher sold on their site to the school, charity, or nonprofit of the purchaser’s choice. 

We believe this offers a wonderful opportunity for our supporters to not only take advantage of great deals at local businesses throughout our area, but also to contribute in an indirect way through normal everyday spending. Whether it’s dining, entertainment, recreation, personal services, retail goods, or some other form of routine spending, we believe the opportunity to give back to the community while participating in local commerce is fantastic! 

You can check out our webpage on the Texas Gives Back website at:  http://texasgivesback.com/NP/San_Antonio_Youth_Literacy

By registering, you’ll also be able to receive daily updates for the deals in your area and across the entire city. As always, we greatly appreciate your continued support of our organization and our mission.

Other Ways To Contribute

Do you sell on eBay?

Well now you can select SAYL to receive anywhere from 10% up to 100% of the final sale price! It's easy, any eBay seller who has a current account can create an eBay Giving Works listing.

Here’s how it works… 

When creating your listing for the item you are selling make sure to select the listing form with the “More listing choices”. The simple form does not offer the eBay Giving Works option. Under “Choose how to sell your item” you can select to donate a percentage of your sell to SAYL. Make sure to select “Or select another nonprofit you love” to have the proceeds go towards SAYL.

All proceeds from the eBay Giving Works will directly benefit SAYL and the “Let’s Read!” program!
