Our leaders in Tyler Texas partnered with the East Texas Food Bank for their Season of HOPE Project to provide essential food items for over 450 families in their East Texas Communities. This marks the Empier Satellite Team’s 5th consecutive year of volunteering with the food bank, and over that time, they have been able to help more than 4,000 households stock their pantries with essentials during the holiday season. Incredible work ladies and gentlemen!
