I'm so proud to be affiliated with Preview Properties. They have a standing community service committee and every month we have an in-house benefit for a local not-for-profit group. We've collected over 1800 cell phones for the Cell Phones for Soldiers program, as just one example.
On April 1st, the Red Cross Blood Drive had 27 donors - no foolin'! Even though we have a sizable building, on blood drive days the Red Cross pretty much takes over the building's lobby and conference rooms.
On April 29th, from 5:30-7:30 pm, we're having an Open House and Fundraiser for Gleaners Community Food Bank. There will be appetizers, wine, entertainment and a silent auction. Put this on your calendar and bring your checkbook! This year, one in eight Michigan families will need emergency food assistance. Food collected in Livingston County stays in Livingston County. In fact, we never collect enough to feed our own hungry. Food has to be brought in from other counties to meet our needs.
And don't forget about the Livingston County Association of Realtors' Fill The Gazebo Food Drive on May 1st. Bring non-perishable food items to the Brighton Millpond. There will be people in the center lane collecting food - you won't even have to get out of your car.
