Thurston County Realtors Association celebrating volunteering

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Evergreen Olympic Realty, Olympia WA

Yesterday was the general meeting for Thurston County REALTORS® in Olympia, WA.  This last meeting of the year is always a fun one.  Not only are the new directors inducted (I'm a new director this year for REALTORS®) and we have a new president, but we also celebrated the volunteering our group does individually and as a whole. 

 

We were happy to present the Thurston County Food Bank with a check for $6,000.  These funds were raised from our fall golf course event. 

 

We also had a wreath auction this year where the winning bids went to the charities of the winner's choice.  Even more money was raised for the food bank, along with many other worthy organizations serving children, women and our senior community.

 

The REALTORS® who also volunteer their time with REALTORS® were recognized, including all the committee chairs and volunteers.  We have fourteen standing committees, which include Education, Government Affairs, Membership, and RPAC.  And we have twelve special committees including Salvation Army Bell Ringing, which happens to be today at area Safeways throughout Thurston County, the softball tournament, Legislative Day and the Housing Summit.

 

I am so proud to be a part of this thriving group of REALTORS® who take tremendous care of their profession as well as our community.  

 

Giving is contagious, and I hope everyone can donate, volunteer or help out their neighbor this year.  If you'd like to donate or volunteer but don't know where to start, call me and I can help!

 

Happy Holiday and Merry Christmas!
