Crazy-busy weeks are nothing new to any of us. But it was a few moments in the middle of one of my recent busy weeks that made me pause and think, “What we’re doing here is really making a difference.”
Our client, Stripes, donated new soccer nets to nine different youth soccer leagues in and around [...]
Congratulations Jan Norton — a part of our extended Firehouse family. Jan graduated with Honors from Tarrant County College on May 18, with a degree of Associate of Applied Science in Mental Health Social Work and Chemical Dependency Counselor.
We met Jan back in December of 2008 through the KLTY Christmas Wish program. Jan has battled [...]

And with Southwest Airlines, the prices are within my budget more often than not, making it nearly impossible to say “no” to weekend getaways.

We just posted some Flickr photos from an event hosted by a client of ours, Stripes, on July 4 at South Padre. The event kicked off a summer-long promo for Stripes that’s all about giving people what they need, when they need it most. Hundreds of beach umbrellas, towels and sand pails were given away, [...]
