A remarkable gathering took place recently at the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, where top professionals from the real estate sector came together for a meaningful cause. The Walk with Pride Fashion Show, an annual event organized by the Corpus Christi Association of Realtors, brought together agents, lenders, and brokers to support a noble initiative. Alongside Barbi Leo from First Edition, I had the pleasure of joining this exciting occasion that combined fashion and philanthropy.
This unique event featured local realtors strutting down the runway to showcase clothing from regional boutiques. However, the primary purpose was far more impactful than just fashion—raising funds to purchase new footwear for children in need across the Coastal Bend region. Briana Morales of the Corpus Christi Association of Realtors emphasized the goal to expand their outreach and continue supporting even more children in communities such as Corpus Christi, Portland, Kingsville, and Alice. As the school year approaches, these much-needed shoes will be distributed to ensure every child starts the academic year on the right foot.
The spirit of community collaboration shines brightly through events like the Walk with Pride Fashion Show. By combining professional expertise with heartfelt generosity, these real estate professionals are making a tangible difference in the lives of countless families. Their dedication not only addresses immediate needs but also fosters a sense of unity and shared responsibility among all participants. This initiative serves as a powerful reminder of the positive impact we can achieve when we come together for a common purpose.
