At Keller Williams VIP and Keller Williams joined together in our efforts for Red Day. Our community program we chose to support was the Ottawa Food Bank. Our agents participated in a variety of activities from collecting food door to door to collecting from neighbours. At the Cayer Team we had a client, friend and neighbour BBQ were we collected donations of money and food.
We did an amazing job, Red Day was May 13th 2010. We spent the morning sorting food at the food bank and in the afternoon we collected donations at 6 different grocery stores. The Final Tally of food collected was 15,145 lbs and $1871 dollars in donations which is worth $9355 worth of food as each dollar collected gives the food bank $5 of buying power.
We couldn't have done it with out the support from our community, we were overwhelmed by the generous assistance and help we received by way of food and cash donations from the members of our local communities.
