Opportunities to Serve God this Season...

SEASONS GREETINGS !!
Hope your Thanksgiving was filled with all the love and laughter you could handle. It is now the time of year to be thankful for our family, friends and focus on all of the things we DO have.

As we all know, finances are very tight for many, and very null for many more. I am especially proud to be in a position to extend the opportunity to everyone I know - the opportunity to serve God through the holiday season. If you, or anyone you know, are interested, or have children and would be interested to get involved...opportunities with our local Salvation Army are plentiful. From packing food boxes, to driving bell ringers to their locations, or making a 2 hour commitmant to stand in front of a grocery store and ring the bell - the opportunities are here and we would love for you to get you involved. Please contact Debbie Newton (916) 208-2577,  I will put you in touch with the lieutenant, together we can get you plugged in.

Hurricane Disaster Relief, November 2012

I am proud to report The California Association of Realtors has donated $100,000 to disaster relief of Hurricane Sandy. This contribution will be distributed through the National Association of Realtors - Realtor Relief Fund. 
In addition and effective immediately, Coldwell Banker's parent company NRT is launching an NRT fundraising effort for a special, targeted “Qualified Disaster Relief Fund” in which 100% of the funds raised will go directly to help fellow NRT employees and agents in their time of need following this disastrous storm. Qualified disaster relief funds will be granted based on individual need as determined by a committee appointed by the Foundation. 

To make your tax-deductible donation to specifically help NRT colleagues affected by the disaster, go to http://www.events.org/nrtrelief. The deadline for donations to and applications for the NRT Qualified Disaster Relief Fund is Friday, Nov. 30, 2012. 

We are pleased to be able to enable you the opportunity to provide relief funds directly for the benefit of our fellow members of the NRT family whose lives have been significantly impacted by this disaster. Thank you in advance for your support.
This goes without saying but our prayers are with the families that are the victims of this great storm and especially our condolences to the families that have lost loved ones
