“Our office jumped on board with this event and quickly raised $1,300,” says Jennifer Morrison, Managing Associate Broker. “The ‘cost’ to attend was one dish to share at the potluck plus either a monetary or food donation for Feed Nova Scotia. It was a huge success! Our REALTORS® and staff gave much more than expected.”

In addition to $1,300 in cash, the office collected 65 kilograms of nutritious, non-perishable food.

The donations from this Sutton office contributed to the province-wide event total of $20,175 for Feed Nova Scotia.
