In the early months of 2021, Windermere offices have continued to give back to their communities. Across Windermere’s 10-state footprint, over $417,000 has been raised this year alone, bringing the total raised by the Windermere Foundation to over $43.7 million since it began in 1989. Thirty-eight percent of this year’s funds were donated by agents from their commissions, while sixty-two percent was raised through fundraisers and additional donations made by owners, agents, and staff. These dollars go toward supporting low-income and homeless families in the communities where Windermere has offices, such as those described below.
Windermere Fort Collins
In late March, the Windermere Fort Collins office stepped up to make a significant impact in their local community by donating $10,000 to ChildSafe Colorado. The organization’s mission is to break the cycle and heal the trauma resulting from childhood abuse and neglect with specialized treatment, education, and community outreach. The Windermere office’s donation will help ChildSafe run its day-to-day operations. The organization is Northern Colorado’s only comprehensive outpatient treatment program for child and adult victims of childhood abuse, treating about 700-800 clients per year.
Windermere Lane County
The team at the Windermere Lane County office in Eugene, Oregon continues to be highly active in their community. So far this year their donations include $2,200 to Bags of Love, which provides necessities and comfort items to children who are in crisis due to neglect, abuse, poverty, or homelessness. Another $2,200 went to CASA of Lane County, which provides court-appointed special advocates to serve neglected and abused children aged 0-17. A $2,500 donation went to Kids First Center to further their impact in the community. Kids First is part of the first response team that supports the healing process when a child is a victim of abuse. Donations of $603 and $2,200 were made to Florence Food Share and Food for Lane County respectively, two organizations dedicated to reducing hunger locally. Lastly, the Windermere Lane County office made a $602 donation to the local Boys and Girls Club of Western Lane County. All in all, these donations totaled over $10,000.
Windermere is so proud of our owners, agents, and staff, and all they do to give back.
