Huge shoutout to the Soarion Service Crew for rocking it at River Aid San Antonio’s 31st Annual Basura Bash! 🔥

Opportunity Home employees spent Saturday morning volunteering at the annual @basurabash , San Antonio’s largest one-day waterway cleanup.
The team worked along Alazán Creek, helping remove trash and debris to support a cleaner environment and healthier surroundings for the communities we serve.
A sincere thank you to the staff members who shared part of their Saturday to support the effort. 🌿✨
Basura Bash is off to a great start with a big turn out! We got paddlers in the water, and land crew picking up litter near the river bank. Tune in to see our final haul!!
