Charitable Focus Today
Demanding accountability and seeking collaboration to ensure effective giving
The CBA traditionally has raised funds for "bricks and mortar" projects not funded by other entities. In 2005 the CBA made a decision to add a new strategic emphasis on eradicating root causes of serious social, health and welfare ills affecting San Antonio's children and concentrating on preparing children 0-5 to succeed in school.
Retaining our original objectives and methods, when appropriate, we work closely to mesh our grants with other funders' resources in the defined geographic areas, thus leveraging efforts in ways that can be measured.
We have designated several of our most experienced members to participate in the Children's Issue Council of the United Way to benefit from its depth of statistical and evaluative capability and to collaborate with others working for children.
The mission of The Charity Ball Association of San Antonio, Inc. is to support and enhance the quality of life for children of Bexar County.
