Nonprofit Status and Financial Growth
An application to form a 501(c)(3) organization was submitted on May 24, 2003, following the receipt of a Certificate of Incorporation from the Texas Secretary of State. The club received its employee identification number on June 5, 2003, and final nonprofit approval from the IRS on August 8, 2003. The first budget, approved by the board that year, was a modest $25,000, which grew annually thanks to donations, parents’ contributions, and sponsors. The State of Texas also granted sales tax exemption and exempt status from franchise taxes, ensuring more resources could support children from diverse backgrounds and schools.
Lasting Community Impact
From its inception, the academy fostered strong community involvement among players and families. Over the past 20 years, San Antonio Elite has donated equipment such as balls and uniforms to various communities and smaller clubs in need. The organization has also been invited by city council members and parks officials to assist with the design and improvement of sports fields, extending its positive influence beyond its own teams.
