Nets On The Run, Inc., or “Nets,”
is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 public charity committed to encouraging healthy
lifestyles and improving public parks. The name is derived from a love of
basketball and a prior addiction to long distance running. Nets provides support
to numerous public facilities and performs volunteer work for larger athletic
events such as the San Antonio Marathon, semi-annual Siclovía fitness
celebrations, and the San Antonio L’Etape Tour de France bike race. We maintain
a close relationship with San Antonio Sports and the upkeep of its 40+
designated school parks is a front-line priority. As such, we average 9 annual
events where we survey parks, install basketball and soccer nets, and conduct area
clean-up. We also perform an annual major service project for designated facilities
in need of more detailed attention. Some of these efforts involved Rhodes Middle School, San Antonio STEAM Academy, and the Legacy Park at Rayburn Middle School. Nets enthusiastically offers community
service and résumé-building opportunities for both adults and juveniles. We have
over 150 members with a regular volunteer contingent of 12 – 25 people who work
at each event.

Nets On The Run has no salaried
employees and functions solely on a volunteer basis. Every donated
dollar is used exclusively to support the defined mission and each expenditure
is collectively approved by the Board of Directors. As an IRS-designated
501(c)3, all donations are tax-deductible. Nets is not an organization
that employs the simple cliché of “raising awareness” – it is a body of committed
volunteers who make a difference in the community, and who collectively want to
serve as a “tipping point” by setting an example for meaningful public service.
Nets On The Run welcomes all donations regardless of amount, but more
importantly, the group welcomes your time, volunteer spirit, and service to the
community!
