Dear REALTOR® community:
It's been a brutal couple of days for Las Vegas community as the world has seen. One evil person showed something... but the 2 million people who live here showed something entirely different - our strength and unity when someone attacks our home. We've come together in our darkest hour as a real community.
I was proud our local REALTOR community came together and donated funds and countless hours of volunteer time, to support our people. Our local board of directors held an emergency vote within 24 hours to donate $25,000 to the victims. More than 50,000 donors donated over $9 million (last time I checked) - an amazing outpouring of support, and that doesn’t include large corporate donations that also came in, including $3 million from MGM Resorts, $1 million from Las Vegas-based UFC and $1 million from Las Vegas-based Zappos.com (to name a few).
I encourage my fellow REALTORS to donate to the GoFundMe for victims... #VegasStrong
