Boxing for a Cause is our way of giving back to our local community. Every month, one of our team members chooses a local nonprofit to receive a donation. Savannah chose the United Way of South Texas for October!
United Way helps organizations maximize their investments and time by consolidating fundraising efforts, saving the community thousands of dollars. The United Way of South Texas chapter funds over 100 programs through 22 Partner Agencies and numerous Community Impact Grant recipients. Through these programs, they are helping youth succeed, strengthening and supporting families by providing employment placement for the disabled, elderly assistance, transportation assistance, emergency shelter, CPR training, and many other critical services.
Savannah says, “Growing up in the Rio Grande Valley, I have seen firsthand the needs of the community, and when those needs have not been met. A lot of these issues can be fixed with proper funding and distribution. I chose United Way because they work across the board to help resolve issues throughout the Valley. Whether they are aiding in health, financial stability, education or safety nets for our people, this is an organization that continues to give back. I wanted to take this opportunity to give back to them.”
