DONATE TODAY!

The Salvation Army has provided the real estate industry with a unique opportunity to become a partner in their efforts on behalf of our neighbors in need.  Real Estate Wednesdays is an opportunity for a broker, agent, title company, mortgage broker, mortgage company, insurance company, or any firm associated with the home ownership industry, to participate in ringing the bells for The Salvation Army during the holiday season.

This is a great way for our industry to give back to our communities.  It is an opportunity to adopt a kettle and brand it to your company.  It will facilitate client engagement and result in a mutually positive involvement with the communities in which we live.  It will be a great way for your firm to bond and work together for the common good.  Real Estate Wednesdays is a great team-building opportunity and a significant way for your team to embrace the spirit of the season.  It may well become a meaningful tradition to celebrate the holidays.

Most importantly, our efforts will provide funding for the many programs that are so vitally important for the less-fortunate in our area.  Currently, most bell-ringers are paid, temporary employees of The Salvation Army.   However, historically, volunteers have raised much more money than paid workers.  If we can replace paid bell-ringers with the professionalism of volunteers from the homeownership industry, the additional revenues and cost savings will be off the charts.  Funds raised during the red kettle campaign provide the majority of funding for so many critical social services of the Army and 100% of the money stays in the community in which it was donated.
