Who We Support
SSCI teams with the following organization to support our community: Armand Bayou Nature Center (ABNC), Texas Extension Service’s 4-H programs, League City Historical Society (LCHS), and Interfaith Caring Ministries (ICM).
ABNC was founded based on the conviction that an educated, involved community is vital to the preservation of our natural environment. ABNC has two missions: provide environmental education to the public and act as the steward of the more than 2,500 undeveloped acres under its care. ABNC receives no regular government funding and relies on foundation support, contributions, special project funding and program attendee fees. We hope you will visit www.abnc.org.
4-H programs throughout the US provide opportunities for children and young adults living both in our cities and rural areas to learn life skills, take leadership positions, practice public speaking and participate in citizenship projects; studies indicate these programs “create” some of our strongest community leaders and entrepreneurial success stories (https://agrilifeextension.tamu.edu).
LCHS was formed in 1989 to preserve, protect, and beautify the old historic area of League City and to own and operate the internationally recognized West Bay Common One-Room schoolhouse Children’s Museum and the Barn Museum. Both museums preserve, display, and interpret history and artifacts. The 501C (3) non-profit organization goals are to educate the community and foster a positive community spirit for rebuilding, restoring, and preserving the historical areas of League City and communities in general. The society is funded through memberships, fundraising events, program attendee fees, grants, and donations (www.leaguecityhistory.org).
ICM is a community assistance coalition supported by local churches, organizations, businesses, and individuals. The mission is to not only help people in crisis, but also facilitate their path to self-sufficiency. ICM (https://icmtx.org) helps more than 8,000 clients each year.
