History
San Antonio Charter Moms (SACM) began as a WordPress blog—really, a self-funded hobby—in 2012. Fueled by her own struggle to find the right schools for her children, and driven by a passion to help other families with their searches, founder Inga Cotton wrote blog posts, created a Facebook page and discussion group, and joined Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. In 2016-17, Inga was a part time staff member at Families Empowered, and remains a supporter of their work.
In 2017, funders approached Inga about transforming SACM into a nonprofit organization. At first, SACM operated under the umbrella of a fiscal sponsor, Quarry Kingdom Development. In September 2018, SACM received a determination letter from the IRS, documenting its status as a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3). SACM continues to work with Quarry Kingdom Development for back-office support.
SACM is deeply thankful to its funders, including the George W. Brackenridge Foundation and Choose to Succeed.
