What is the Rainbow Room?

The Rainbow Room is an emergency supply store run by Dare to Love volunteers and located in CPS headquarters at 3635 SE Military Drive in San Antonio.  The room is stocked with diapers, formula, clothing, shoes, school supplies, personal grooming items and household cleaning supplies.  Everything is given free of charge to the children through their CPS case workers.  A battered mother and children who have fled an abusive home can be given new clothes and cleaning supplies to start a new life. 

In 2006, Dare to Love distributed 44,653 new items to 4,513 children or caretakers.  Without the Rainbow Room many Bexar County children would go hungry, sleep on bare floors without blankets or have no school supplies.

What is F.L.I.G.H.T. (Funding for Living Independently - Getting Help Now)

F.L.I.G.H.T. provides limited financial assistance to single youth who grew up in our foster care system, are now on their own without family to turn to and struggling to achieve their goals of becoming independent, self-supporting citizens.  They must have exhausted all other resources, be enrolled in an educational program, employed or actively seeking employment.
