Windermere Shoreline Real Estate plans a day of community service at Food Lifeline

From Shoreline Windermere blog
Every year since 1984, Windermere associates have dedicated a day of work on Community Service Day, on which we join together to complete neighborhood improvement projects. Community Service Day gives us an opportunity to give back to the communities where we live and work. Each of our offices selects a neighborhood project; we clean, landscape and repair parks, playgrounds, schools, shelters and community buildings.
Windermere Shoreline will try to beat their 2009 record. |
Windermere Real Estate Shoreline will be working with Food Lifeline in Shoreline, sorting through donated food to prepare it for distribution to local food banks. Previously, we were able to sort 5,653 pounds of food providing 4,461 meals. This Friday, June 17, we will try to beat our record!
