Specialty finance company Sallyport Commercial Finance and its employees supported the local Houston community by delivering gift cards to an elementary school that was severely impacted by Hurricane Harvey.
Hilliard Elementary School was placed in a top ten list of schools damaged by the storm, with floodwaters reaching four feet high inside the school and causing extensive damage. Additionally, every teacher and student had been impacted at a personal level, with many families losing everything, including all of their clothes, shoes and toys. Some still aren’t situated in permanent housing, and one family is living in their car.
The school chose some of the worst affected teachers and students to receive the donated gift cards from Sallyport.
The company continues to support donations to the Red Cross recovery efforts for Hurricane Harvey as well as those made by other charities.
