Tom, For some reason I knew you would be involved in a worthy cause such as this.
Kimberly, It is a wonderful cause. I even have my little ones help. Thank you for your constant support and kind words.
Hey Mana,
Thanks for sharing. Our board (AOR) is still involved with Christmas Cantree, feeding the hungry. It was a statewide REALTOR project at one time, not sure now if it's in other areas or not.
Leah, My friend it is so nice to see you again and thank you.
Lynda, Our association helps the drive as well, however I had no idea NAR helped as well.
Mana - this is TERRIFIC!! The foodbanks always need help at this time of the year. I was THRILLED to help By Referral Only donate over 2500lbs to the foodbank in Tampa Bay for The Main Event!!
