Board of Directors
Cathy Hamilton
San Antonio Threads
CEO and Founder
San Antonio Threads was born out of Cathy Hamilton’s experience as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) where she witnessed the indignity of teen girls selecting used clothing from a barrel.
Cathy recognized an unmet need and created a retail-like environment where our community’s often-forgotten teens in foster care can shop for NEW clothes, shoes and personal items for FREE. Thus, the formation of San Antonio Threads! “Ms. Cathy,” as the youth call her, has worked tirelessly for over three years to bring her concept to full reality.
