EDINA, MN (September 20, 2013) – The Coldwell Banker Burnet Foundation raised $25,000 at its charity Golf Challenge event on August 7 at the Majestic Oaks Golf Club. The proceeds of the event will benefit the Foundation’s housing-related charitable partners which include Bridging, Ronald McDonald House Charities®, Interfaith Outreach and Community Partners, Spare Key, and Salvation Army Grace Place.
“As Realtors we know the importance of having a place to call ‘home’ and are committed to making a difference in the communities that we serve,” said Robin Peterson, president of Coldwell Banker Burnet. “We are so thrilled about our successful event and are proud to give back and support our partners. Whether it’s helping to bridge that gap between those ‘who have’ and those ‘who have not’ with the basic necessities or helping provide a supportive home for families of seriously-ill children, the Foundation is committed to helping those in need.”
“This event would not have been possible without the hard work of the many people who volunteered their time and expertise, and the generous people who purchased sponsorships and donated auction items,” adds Peterson.
Coldwell Banker Burnet Foundation is the charitable arm of Coldwell Banker Burnet and a local chapter of the Realogy Charitable Foundation Inc., a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization. The Coldwell Banker Burnet Foundation’s mission is to support housing-related needs of people at all stages of life in the communities they serve.
