温德米尔加入了迪克斯汽车餐厅和其他公司,为无家可归的家庭建立了一个冬季庇护所
Seattle-based Windermere Real Estate is joining Dicks Drive-In, Steven Hauschka and the Seahawks Women's Association, Vulcan, the Harrelson Family, the Space Needle, and others by making a $35,000 donation to Mary’s Place “No Child Sleeps Outside” campaign, which is seeking $250,000 to help bring Seattle families inside at night this winter. The money will be used to open a crisis-response night shelter for Mary’s Place, a non-profit organization that provides shelter, nourishment, resources, healing and hope to homeless families in transition in downtown Seattle. The six-week crowdsourcing campaign was the brainchild of Saul Spady, grandson of the founder of Dicks Drive-In, and a member of the Mary’s Place board.
OB Jacobi, president of Windermere Real Estate said that several Windermere offices came together and decided to make the donation after reading a local news story about Spady, and his mother Fawn Spady’s effort to provide shelter to 550 homeless families this winter. “The underlying goal of the 温德米尔湖的基础 is to help low-income and homeless families, so it makes perfect sense for us to support this incredibly worthy effort,” said Jacobi.
Jacobi added that Windermere is already a supporter of Mary’s Place, donating hundreds of pairs of children’s shoes to the non-profit last summer following a back-to-school sneaker drive. It was also where Windermere’s Wall Street office spent the company’s annual Community Service Day this year cleaning their emergency family shelter. 雅可比说,温德米尔捐赠的资金是由西雅图地区的代理商和员工悦博体育通过房地产佣金捐赠和工资扣除筹集的。 He said that he hopes their generosity will inspire others to help Mary’s Place reach their $250,000 goal by the December 23 deadline.
