Help One Another

A simple credo. One most of us learned in kindergarten. And then, sadly, unlearned as we entered the work world. For many, it all became about getting ahead and making a name for themselves. It became all about "me".

This "Me" generation has never existed at McMurry. The "Thee Before Me" generation got here first.

Just ask the client who received monies generated from voluntary McMurry staff donations shortly after being downsized out of his job. Or the employee for whom we helped secure thousands of dollars in back child support. And the other for whom we provided sanctuary and a way out of an abusive relationship.

Or ask the residents of the neighborhood we helped by turning a deserted alley into a tree-lined pathway and by spearheading a Block Watch program and annual free flu shot day.

History has shown us that man's greatest achievements are not from acts of individual greatness, but rather numerous, individual acts of each of us helping one another. And so it is at McMurry.
