Press Release | 2.18.10
DANVILLE & WALNUT CREEK – Empire Realty Associates held a One Warm Coat drive in both offices that ended on January 15th. In total, they collected 791 warm coats, jackets, and sweaters.
Empire Realty decided to participate in this drive because it reaches out to the local community and delivers a good message, that it is a simple way to help people who are in need. The dream is that One Warm Coat will become part of the American lifestyle, so that when a coat is no longer in need, people will donate their gently used items to One Warm Coat. This year they raised around 350,000 coats and arranged over 2,000 drives.
“It was a great feeling to see so many people spreading the warmth to those in need. We were able to reach such a great goal with the help of the team of Realtors in my office, clients, friends, family and the Contra Costa Realtors in Motion group.
One day I received a call from a local teenager who had 300 coats she collected for the drive. It was definitely a team effort. I am looking forward to supporting this great cause again in 2010.” says Julie Sullivan, Realtor for Empire Realty Associates.
Thank you for supporting the One Warm Coat drive and Empire Realty Associates in order to help those who are in need. There are 791 people who are a little warmer this winter season because of everyone’s support.
