Wow! 2009 was a great year for the Metro Denver REALTOR® Foundation with lots of exciting changes and improvements. We continue to make a difference as we represent our area Boards and Associations in charitable giving, while at the same time cutting our overhead substantially.
Keeping expenses in mind, we had a fantastic Golf Tournament at a new venue, Saddle Rock Golf Club. We received very positive feedback and raised a great deal of money to help out The Colorado Center for the Blind, who were, once again very enthusiastic committee members and participants.
The Golf Tournament also helped launch a new MDRF program, Backpacks for Kids.
We once again partnered with STRIDE
for our most successful Magic of MDRF event to date and are proud to present a sizable donation to them. We are truly grateful for their continued participation and commitment to this wonderful event.
We have worked on expanding our fundraising efforts by implementing a new program to help underprivileged kids in the metro Denver area by providing backpacks filled with school supplies. Our Buck a Deal and Tree of Life programs continue to be a viable avenue for giving back to the community and for growing our endowment.
We partnered with DERA(Douglas Elbert REALTOR® Association) for their Annual Helping Hands event. This was a very successful event that allowed us to join forces and help a very worthy recipient with her home maintenance and repairs.
We were also able to revamp our website thanks to the talents of Kevin Faulkner and his team at Kevin Faulkner Design. We can now take payments and accept donations, securely online. We can also advertise and promote all of our programs and events!
Finally, it has been my pleasure to be associated with the Metro Denver REALTOR® Foundation and to serve as the 2009 Chair, I look forward to another year as the Chair with many more successes as we work to "Improve our community, one family at a time!"
