Today Sotheby's - again Supporting Toys for Tots and Our Food Bank

Again this year my office, Today Sotheby's International Realty, is supporting two fabulous charities this holiday season.

Second Harvest Food Bank serves the needy in our own communities. Did you have any idea that 1 in 10 people in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties receive food from Second Harvest Food Bank? Staggering figure, and they need our help.  You'll find collection barrels for donations of non-perishable food items in our office between now and December 17, 2012. Why not pick up some nutritious items next time you're shopping for yourself and bring them by?  (No glass jars, please.) We're located at 1250 San Carlos Avenue, between Laurel and Walnut Street, in downtown San Carlos. Office hours are 8:00-6:00, Monday-Friday; 9:00-5:00 Saturday and Sunday. Checks made payable to Second Harvest Food Bank can also be dropped off. Our friendly staff will be happy to see you, guard your check or cash payment until collection day, and direct you to the food collection barrels.

Today Sotheby's International Realty is also collecting cash and toys for the Marine Corps Toys For Tots program. Unwrapped gifts and be left under the office Christmas tree. Cash donations, made payable to Toys for Tots, can be given to our front desk staff. The best part of the cash gifts is that our fabulous Broker/Owners, Jeanne Garde and Jim Meader will be matching our cash gifts dollar for dollar! Let's add some joy to children's Christmas throughout the country, especially with so many children affected by Hurricane Sandy.

There's no better way to get into the holiday spirit than by making others' days a bit better.
