HOUSTON-Two Houston schools are beneficiaries of Ft. Worth-based Crescent Real Estate Equities Co.’s community relations program that donates time and money to schools nationwide.

Crescent employees at Greenway Plaza are contributing to Bruce Elementary School while Houston Center’s staff is supporting the Southmayd Elementary School. In the six months, the Faces of Change program has kicked in more than $223,500 and in excess of 2,400 volunteer hours have come from Crescent teams aiding 21 schools in the nation. And, says Crescent, it is on target to break the 1999-2000 school term total of more than $229,000 and 5,700 volunteer hours nationwide. The program supports such educational tools as books, computers, software, network cabling, playground equipment, uniforms, musical instruments and staff training.
