The Conference Table Gets a Second Life
We've been doing some expansion at the bhip offices, one of the LACORE™ Enterprises companies, and needed to find a new home for some of the office furnishings. Giving local organizations first dibs on our gigantic conference table and chairs who might not otherwise have the budget for executive-level furniture was a priority. We want to thank the McKinney Chamber of Commerce and Volunteer McKinney for helping connect us with the Assistance Center of Collin County who are giving the furniture a second life.
Cycling for Charity
