GTAR & The Community

Real estate professionals are some of the most active members of their communities. A variety of community service projects coordinated by our Community Service Committee are held throughout the year to benefit local shelters, food pantries, children's groups, and other organizations.

 

Service projects include:

  •  Teddy Bear & Blanket Drive for The Smith County Children's Advocacy Center
  • Annual School Supply Drive for CASA for Kids of East Texas
  • Box Fan Drive for PATH - People Attempting To Help
  • Supporting Whitehouse Philadelphia Food Pantry
  • Hosting a Blood Drive for Carter Blood Care
  • Hosting an Annual 1st Responders Dinner
  • & More

Community Service Committee

We are incredibly grateful for the continued support of our members and our Community Service Committee. It is a privilege to serve our community, and we appreciate Philadelphia Blessing Food Pantry for allowing us to be part of the wonderful work they do. For our Food Drive, our members collected a total of 6,444 items to fight hunger in our local community.
