OUR VOLUNTEER S Volunteers Enable St. Philip’s to Respond to COVID-19 Crisis Crisis can bring out the best and worst in us. Fortunately, St. Philip’s School and Community Center has seen the best in individuals, businesses, and other nonprofits, as we all rally together to respond to the COVID-19 crisis and the growing needs of our neighbors. We are tremendously grateful for everyone who has supported St. Philip’s this year, with special appreciation to those who’ve been on the front-lines as it relates to Aunt Bette’s Community Pantry services during this unprecedented time – AmeriCorps, Renee and Steve Comen, Honda, neighbor and SPSCC alumni parent, Dr. Jackie Longshaw, and SPSCC trustees David Cowling and Dee Velvin.

Tolleson Wealth Management Partners with SPSCC St. Philip’s School and Community Center is privileged to have been selected by Tolleson Wealth Management as its newest community partner. Tolleson CEO, J. Carter Tolleson, officially announced the partnership at the company’s annual team meeting, held at the Dallas Country Club in February. “St. Philip’s and Tolleson both share a great passion for serving others in our community,” said Mr. Tolleson. “We are grateful for the opportunity to help St. Philips further their mission and to involve all of our employees while doing so. We are looking forward to, what I hope will be, a long and rewarding partnership.” Prior to the big announcement, the company was already meaningfully engaged with St. Philip’s, as earlier in the school year - without hesitation - Tolleson provided etiquette and financial literacy to our Girls Rites of Passage mentoring program; read to our Early Childhood students through our D.E.A.R. time; served as volunteers in our community pantry; and eagerly supported our largest fundraiser – THE DESTINY AWARD LUNCHEON - in a significant way. St. Philip’s cannot do ALL that we do WELL without generous, compassionate supporters like the amazing team that makes up Tolleson Wealth Management. We are so grateful for their sincere and impactful investment in positive community transformation with St. Philip’s and in South Dallas. We look forward to blessing many lives through this partnership.

Thank You Volunteers St. Philip’s sends its sincere gratitude to every individual volunteer and organization for their compassionate service to the children, families, and community we serve so proudly in South Dallas. Thank you for being a Friend of St. Philip’s -- YOU BELONG!
