Following catastrophes like Hurricane Harvey, when people need help getting back on their feet, is when independent agents in the IIAT family really show their value and compassion.

Staff and family from Hotchkiss Insurance Agency in Carrollton is one IIAT member agency that has been on the ground in the Houston area helping hurricane recovery efforts. Hotchkiss shared photos from their relief efforts in a photo album on their Facebook page to inspire others to help aid the recovery process.

In a post on their Facebook page, Hotchkiss wrote, “It’s incredibly inspiring to see people from near and far join together to serve one another. In the midst of such a trying time, we want to be reminded of the kindness that is in action. Here are a few photos of our own Hotchkiss family (staff, clients, family!) helping out. We find these encouraging and uplifting, and hope you do, too!”
