Description

Howdy everyone!

Search & Support San Antonio's advocacy and outreach programs include the upcoming events "the 11th annual Honk for the Missing" and "the 1st annual 5k walking boots and heels for the Missing and against domestic violence."

How do we use the sponsor's contributions?

The main aim of our program is to raise and improve public awareness about missing children and adults, as well as victims of unsolved crimes and cold cases. Publicity will be achieved by printing and displaying large banners, posters with stakes, car top signs, retractable banners, car flags and flyers to give out. These costs will be covered by your sponsorship.
For further details please check out our events and portfolio of last year's moments of the Honk for the Missing event.

A quick introduction:
We formed an organized search team in 2019 while searching for Andreen McDonald, a missing mother and murdered domestic abuse victim. Since then, Search & Support San Antonio has grown into a registered non-profit that is trained and certified by FEMA, TEEX and NASAR as well as CERT. We are a team of 21 consisting of active duty military, veterans, veteran dependents, retired law enforcement, private investigators, survivors of domestic violence, and engaged citizens in our community. In addition, families of missing loved ones and victims of crime are equally involved in our advocacy and outreach efforts. We train and background check our volunteers. All of our search, rescue, and discovery services are free of charge, and we do not accept any donations from family members nor rewards. Furthermore, we provide advocacy and support to families of missing persons and those who have been victims of unsolved crimes through outreach events. With our motto, "We are here to serve our community", we believe that we make a difference, and our efforts are well received. We are active members of the San Antonio VOAD, 2-1-1 Bexar Necessities, the Texas Crime Prevention Association (Alamo Area) and have collaborated with the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office V-Corp search team since 2022. Three forensic artists have been working with our organization since 2023, offering free age progression photographs to missing adults and children.
