Whirlwind Partners with Kidz Harbor to Make a Difference in the Community

HOUSTON, April 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the past three months, Whirlwind Steel team members from the Houston and Georgia locations worked together to help Kidz Harbor, a local non-profit that houses children in troubled circumstances all over Texas.

The initial goal was to collect a total of 100 pillows and pillow cases. They exceeded their goal and raised over $1,000 to pay for 100 pillows and 80 pillow cases. This inspired other Whirlwind team members to contribute an additional 50 pillows.

On the day of delivery, Director Sharon Beard stated, "Whirlwind set a new record for pillow donations. This is unbelievable and will go a long way."

This is the first of many quarterly drives that Whirlwind plans throughout the year. Whirlwind is committed to making a difference in the community. This is inspired by one of their core values, Passion For Life. Ty Sturdivant, President, said: "I witnessed a powerful example of our team showing passion for life, there is nothing more important than helping kids in need and that is exactly what we are doing."
