The Greater McAllen Association of Realtor staff, Public Relations committee & the Young Professional Network committee came together to give back to our teachers with Totes for Teachers. 500 bags and yummy tacos were distributed to our local teachers to help them get a jump start in the new school year. Valley Land Title Co. was happy to participate as a sponsor and volunteer their time to “fill the totes for teachers” bags and then to distribute them to a long line of cars. It was a HOT day but so worth it!
