How It All Began
The concept of Gather-N-Give Connections was birthed long before we became a Texas nonprofit organization. About 15 years ago, Gail was serving as a volunteer at a local food pantry. While interviewing a grandmother about family needs, the grandmother informed Gail that her grandson couldn’t participate in gym class because he didn’t have the right shoes. While all the other children participated in gym class, the boy had to sit on the sidelines. Gail told the grandmother she knew someone who would give her shoes for the boy. That was the beginning and we have grown by leaps and bounds.
