Spare Parts, is a dynamic 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in San Antonio, Texas, whose mission is to promote reuse, sustainability, and the arts.
This Valentine’s weekend, Spare Parts hosted a food donation drive to support our cause, and we are deeply grateful for the generous donations received to help feed our cats and kittens. All who donated cat food also received a 10% discount to shop at their store! We hope to work with Spare Parts again and further bridge the art and cat-loving community together.
We also want to take a moment to acknowledge the profound loss of Spare Parts’ founder, Mary Elizabeth Cantu. Her passion, dedication, and tireless work laid the foundation for the incredible initiatives Spare Parts continues to carry out. Mary’s legacy will live on in the hearts of every creative soul who walks through the doors of Spare Parts.
Through Mary’s vision, Spare Parts became a canvas for opportunity, bringing together both artists and the community. Her spirit of generosity and inclusion continues to inspire and will undoubtedly ripple through San Antonio for years to come.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to a scholarship fund being established in Mary’s honor to support graduating seniors from the Henry Ford Academy pursuing higher education.
Donations can be made to: Henry Ford Academy: Alameda School, 901 E. Drexel Ave., Bldg. C, San Antonio, TX 78210, to the Attention of: J.R. Sanchez.
