Give Realty facilitated their third donation to GTAustin in behalf of Pete and Reyes Martinez.
GTAustin is a church in North Austin that has developed a special “Community Reach Out” project that includes spiritual, cultural, educational, and recreational activities.
The aim of the program is to provide assistance, change, and transformation to the families in different communities within the Austin area. An important component of the initiative includes tutoring services to students within the community schools during the school year and summer session.
The Martinezes have a special connection to the church as their family has been part of the congregation since 1980. Furthermore, Pete is a Pastor-on-Staff overseeing the Hispanic ministry, as well as leading a community initiative in the Georgian area. The Martinez’s reason for continuing to work with Laurie Loew is not only for another opportunity to donate to their church, but also because of Loew’s expertise and professionalism.
“It’s important that the client ends up with the right realtor,” said Reyes Martinez. “A lot of people sell homes. Laurie has done an outstanding job in providing us superb client services. We found out about the contribution aspect at the end of the process. Laurie never used this as a marketing point to secure us as clients. We were delighted to learn of the added bonus!”
The Martinez’s most recent donation will go to support GTAustin’s tutoring program that offers services to students within the Georgian community during the school and summer sessions. The program relies on church and community volunteers to help deliver the tutoring to the students.
