After a relaxing holiday season I am excited to get back to work!
As a REALTOR ® ( the word realtor is now a trademark and this is how I must type it from now on!) starting a new year means setting goals, budgeting, thinking up new ideas for marketing homes and new ways to give back and help others. Over the years I have donated to the SPCA and will continue to do so. I have also organized and been a part of a few fundraisers for The Royal Lepage Shelter Foundation. It is Canada's largest public foundation dedicated exclusively to funding women's shelters and violence prevention and education programs. Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company to have its own charitable foundation and since it started in 1999 we have raised over $10 million
This year I wanted to do more, make more of an individual difference. I am thrilled to announce that I am going to donate $100 from every real estate transaction this year. That means every listings sold or house bought with me I will donate $100 with 50% to our local womens shelter in Campbell River and 50% will go towards our BC directed education programs that support the long term solutions to break the cycle of violence. The great thing about the shelter foundation is that 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to the cause.

Happy 2011 everyone!
