SAN ANTONIO -- The Alamo Fireworks Warehouse at 1604 and Potranco is hoping for good business -- but not just to make a profit.
It's planning on giving a percentage of the money it makes to the
Capital Area Young Marines.
It is a group of young men who plan on becoming U.S. Marines and it functions like a Boy Scout troop.
We spoke with one teenager who says the program is inspiring him to become a Marine once he's old enough.
“This is actually helping me learn before I get there, helping me be more prepared than most others,” John Henry Sepulveda says. “It's training me to have more discipline."
Alamo Fireworks is hoping to donate $1000 to the young Marines group. The money will go towards boot camp, the meals, and uniforms.
