Real Estate Agent with EXP Realty 414-525-0563 57026-90 Broker

  A tisket a tasket….have fun donating a basket…!  All year long we collect items for baskets that we use to donate to silent auctions for our favorite charities. 

  This is our “Cheese and Thank You” Basket that includes wine,  a crystal wine carafe, a granite cheese plate and knife, corkscrew, cheese and a gift certificate to Brennan’s  a local specialty store that feature fruit, wine and cCheese and Thank You Basketheese for the recipient to purchase items of their choice.

    This basket will debut at The Women’s Center’s annual silent auction held at their Fashion Show fund raiser..this year with the theme … A Fashionable Dream, held at Country Springs Hotel on Friday, November 21st.  ‘Tickets are  $75 per person and you can reserve yours now….click here.  The Women's Center offers free programs and services that help women and children heal and break the cycle of violence.

     Charities throughout your area are having silent auctions…enjoy the creativity of making a basket…and knowing that your gift is going to a wonderful cause.

 

   We  believe it is important to give back to the communities that we are honored to serve and a part of every commission is shared with local charities.  If you have not had that practice in the past, consider doing it now…you need not wait until the first of the year to make it a resolution…make it your own evolution…..evolving and resolving to give back to the people who need it most in your community.

Before we left on vacation, I donated a basket of chocolate cheer to a local church that was helping out a soup kitchen. I need to find out if the basket recovered the cost I spent for it

Sally & David what a wonderful organization you support by giving away a basket full of goodies at the Women silent auction. It's sure to make any winner smile with joy, especially after they have a few sips of the wine....lol
