Once again this year, the Greater Moncton area REALTORS® have worked hard to raise funds for three great community causes. “We survey our members every year to find out what local causes they want to support and this year it was very apparent that the local REALTORS® felt there was a real need to provide food and safe shelter to a wide variety of the Greater Moncton citizens. We were proud to raise over $21,000 for our causes this year,” say Ricky Cormier, President of the Greater Moncton REALTORS® du Grand Moncton.
Crossroads for Women has been a fundraising partner for the past 2 years and will continue to receive support in 2015. The Breakfast for Learning Programs, in both the Anglophone East and Francophone Sud districts, have been recipients of funding for over 10 years. Harvest House was added to the mix of fundraising partners for 2014. “Some of our fundraising partners have large projects, like the remodel of a newly acquired house to assist women and children at Crossroads for Women and others are utilizing the funds for ongoing activities; things like making sure children have food in their bellies to help them learn,” explains Ricky.
“Crossroads for women is very grateful to the Greater Moncton REALTORS® du Grand Moncton for their continued support. Having an organization that provides a commitment of funding gives us ease as we continue to focus on the work we do with the women and children of our community,” says Tina Thibodeau, Executive Director of Crossroads for Women. “Thank You.”
Funds are raised through various activities undertaken by the Greater Moncton REALTORS® du Grand Moncton organization on an annual basis. The Annual REALTORS Care® Golf Tournament is the largest fundraising activity. “We need to thank all of the local REALTORS®, our sponsors and supporters of our fundraising activities. Without all of this generosity we could never raise this much money,” says Ricky.
Greater Moncton REALTORS® du Grand Moncton is already preparing for the 2015 year and will be hosting their Annual REALTORS Care® Golf Tournament on September 17th, 2015.
