Washington chapter gives back to REALTOR® diagnosed with cancer.
In 2015, CRS Chapters all across the nation opened their hearts to give back to their communities, raising over $100,000 total for Chapter With a Heart. Many of the chapters stood out with their contributions and compelling stories, including the Washington CRS Chapter.
When Sharri Bailey, CRS, Washington CRS Chapter President, heard about a local REALTOR® who was diagnosed with leukemia, she was compelled to help. She helped organize her chapter to get involved as part of the CRS Chapter With a Heart program, and donations poured in. The Washington Chapter eventually raised over $1,200 for the agent to help him with costs related to his diagnosis.
Additionally, the Washington CRS Chapter also raised over $10,200 total for four charitable organizations with a Masquerade Ball, various events and additional donations. The organizations included the Autoimmune Society, SolidGround, Tulip Town and Habitat for Humanity. The Washington CRS Chapter goes above and beyond in taking care of not only its members, but also its community.
”My goal this year was to strengthen our membership and further our position as leaders in our community,” said Bailey. ”This was a large reason why our chapter went above and beyond for Chapter With a Heart. Looking back on the year, I am proud of the Washington CRS Chapter and the positive contributions we have made as a family.”
