Fall Food Drive

As a real estate agent I get the benefit of working for myself while working for a great company.  I set my schedule and I create my own success.  One of my recent marketing ventures also served a very worthy cause and the results were quite surprising for me.

The Reno and Sparks offices for Keller Williams hosted a Fall Food Drive to benefit the Food Bank of Northern Nevada.  As a group we collected almost 300 bags of non-perishable food items to help people in our own communities.  A very worthy cause, indeed.

It all adds up!

What surprised me was not that people were so generous.  I was surprised that a couple afternoons knocking on doors in my own neighborhood, even my own street, would be so rewarding.  I met a lot of really wonderful people.  In spite of the political door-knockers and television/Internet providers that have been in our neighborhood recently a large number of people opened their homes to me.  While I do hope to be able to serve these people with any real estate needs they may have I have already been rewarded with the knowledge that I am surrounded by such great neighbors!

Go introduce yourself to the neighbor you've been waving at on your way to work for years.  Stop and chat with the family raking leaves down the street.  You'll be glad you did!
