Please join Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team of Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty as we help our neighbors at Second Chances and Arlington EATS this June.

Donate your unwanted clothing, shoes, and accessories to Second Chances!
For over 20 years Second Chances has helped homeless and low-income families feel confident and valued as they take their first steps toward a brighter future. And it wouldn’t be possible without our help. You can donate clothing, shoes, and accessories that you no longer need, fit, or you just don’t want. Some studies say that the average American discards over 80 pounds of clothing each year and they end up in landfills. So, for the benefit of your neighbors and your planet, donate today!
