It’s easier to give than to receive

I left the Seguin Holiday Inn Monday morning, September 29th, at 6:00 to go meet the contractor at my loft in Galveston for the first time, dropping off my three 4-legged kids and a trunk-load of donations in Houston for safe-keeping on my way.
That afternoon, still Monday, I got a call from our fabulous Peggy Tuthill, the original founder of the Keller Williams Memorial office and the first ever KW agent in Houston – who now makes her home in Galveston – saying that 1,500 pounds of clothes donated by the Keller Williams International staff in Austin were on their way to Galveston for distribution to the community. Many local charitable organizations aren’t accepting clothing (too high maintenance, I guess), so our mission would be to get the items to people who needed them.
