Door to Door Storage Joins SEED

Door to Door joined with the University of San Diego (USD) School of Business Administration (SBA) to participate in its 2009 Sustainable Environment Enterprise Development (SEED) project. The 2009 goal of SEED was to retrofit the house of Skip Gleavey, an accomplished tri-athlete, marathon runner, and 100-mile biker, to make it handicap accessible. In the past five years, Gleavey has battled and survived significant challenges, including a massive heart attack, Stage 4 Follicular Lymphoma, and a devastating biking accident that left him paralyzed.

“The feelings of self-worth, pride, and dignity are priceless. Because of SEED, I can now look forward to the future,” says Gleavey. “For the first time since the accident that left me paralyzed, I will now be able to function independently and lighten the burden on others. It also allows me to regain some of my self-esteem that I lost when I became incapacitated.”

Door to Door’s San Diego branch will donate all portable storage containers, transportation fees, and off-site storage, plus a majority of the packing supplies for the project. The storage containers were used by Gleavey and his wife to accommodate their furnishings and possessions until the completion of the project.
