Each year, on the second Thursday in May, tens of thousands of associates from across the World including Canada participate in a wide range of projects, devoting their time to renewing and energizing aspects of the neighbourhoods in which they serve. This year Keller William Elite Realty has chosen a continuation of the last two years, which has been to support Associations of Community Living. Choosing to work with homes that support special needs children or adults is near and dear to one of our very own agents as her own daughter has special needs and may one day need the support of a wonderful place such as these. Over the past two years KW Elite Realty has taken on a huge undertaking of painting, carpet removal, gardening, leveling, brick work and power washing to help make the homes a cheerful place for the residents to live in Port Moody and Port Coquitlam. This year we are excited to announce we will be taking on a Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge location to help beautify the landscape and exteriors making the grounds of the homes safe and enjoyable for the residents. We are reaching out to our community, family, friends, clients and colleagues to help us fund this amazing project by donation. Every bit helps to cover the cost of the paint, sod & soil, gravel and other materials needed. We are also looking to raise funds to surprise everyone with their two big wish items a new patio set for the Maple Ridge house and a high-end dishwasher for the Pitt Meadows home. Please feel free to come out and join us on May 12th if you would like to donate your time! We sincerely THANK YOU for your help and support with our RED DAY 2016.
