Realtors give back to local community
Weichert, Realtors – Coastal Properties has been involved with numerous community events in the Beaufort area throughout the year, many of which benefited local charities.
They started in April at the Blue Angels Air Show in Beaufort distributing goodie bags to the thousands of military and civilian attendees.
Next came the big splash they made at the June DragonBoat race, where the office has raised close to $13,000 over the last two years to help cancer patients and survivors in Beaufort County.
The Weichert affiliate was back at again a few months later handing out 3,000 bags of candy to costumed children and their parents at the Oct. 26 Trick or Treat in Downtown Beaufort event. They also hosted a Dec. 9 Toys for Tots collection event to help families and children in need locally this holiday season.
“We’re honored to have been asked to be a part of so many incredible community events this year,” said Karen Ryan, the co-owner/broker of Weichert, Realtors Coastal Properties. “Doing all of this gives us an opportunity to give back to a community that has supported us throughout the years while helping those in need. And we’re not done yet.”
The company is also collecting non-perishable food items until Jan. 31 at its Beaufort, Bluffton, Hilton Head and Okatie offices to help Second Helpings, a nonprofit food rescue and distribution network that works to eliminate hunger in the Lowcountry.
