In 2024, Judith and Jesus Rendon bought an old post office on Southcross Boulevard. <\/p>\n

Over the last two years, they spent late nights working on the space between taking care of their children and keeping up with their various community efforts. <\/p>\n

Judith Rendon serves on the board for Center for Health Empowerment in South Texas. Jesus Rendon teaches part time at Palo Alto College and is a board member at South San Antonio Independent School District, when he\u2019s not working for a local cyber operations company.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the couple officially gave the 7,000-square-foot brick building new life as the Rendon Entrepreneurial Center.<\/p>\n

The center brings together coworking and office space with educational and healthcare resources the Rendons have worked with in San Antonio.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope for this place to be the launch pad for economic opportunity on the South Side,\u201d Jesus Rendon said.<\/p>\n

By giving entrepreneurs from the neighborhood space and access to expertise, he says he hopes more businesses start and incomes rise. He wants to connect residents with educational opportunities through South San Antonio ISD and Palo Alto College so they can get higher paying jobs in the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to see businesses grow through the REC,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019d like to see kids get jobs at Port San Antonio. I want to see companies get government contracts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The center will offer a combination of paid and free services. Coworking space, offices and suites will be available for rent, he said, with discounts for residents living south of U.S. Highway 90.<\/p>\n

But business development services and entrepreneurial education will be free. As an adjunct business professor, Jesus Rendon says he plans to advise entrepreneurs from the area on how to start limited liability companies, get their employer identification numbers and seek funding.<\/p>\n

The center will also host events and artistic performances on the last Friday of each month on a stage at the back of the building. There is also a podcast room that community members will be able to access.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople who want to be an influencer, people who want to try things, they can do it here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Southside politicians attended the center\u2019s ribbon cutting on Friday afternoon and emphasized its importance to the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor way too long, the southern sector of Bexar County has been neglected,\u201d said Bexar County Commissioner Rebeca Clay Flores (Pct. 1). <\/p>\n

\u201cThe opening of the REC shows us how committed our community is to revitalizing a historic corridor in Southwest San Antonio and providing the much-needed support for current and prospective small business owners,\u201d added Councilman Edward Mungia (D4).<\/p>\n

Jesus Rendon said South San Antonio residents don\u2019t have business development opportunities like other corners of San Antonio.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re the only one. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important for us to be here,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m here for the long run. I live a street away. This is my community.\u201d<\/p>\n
