Following a break in 2020, the 27th Annual REALTORS Care® Blanket Drive is back!
The less fortunate in our communities have been hit hard by COVID-19, and even with the “new normal” on the horizon, many people in our community need help!
With vaccination rates on the rise, and new recent safety guidelines, we’re able to collect blankets, warm clothing, and new socks and undergarments starting November 15 and continuing until November 22. The following items are needed most:
- warm clothing
- coats
- blankets
- new socks
- new underwear
Collection bags will be available from your Blanket Drive Area Leaders in the coming days.
And more fundraising!
Last year REALTORS raised $50,000 for our partner charities. The donations helped in their time of greatest need. This year we will again include a fundraising component to the campaign for those who wish to contribute in this way.
All proceeds will go directly to local charities that help keep those in need stay safe and warm.
