THANK YOU TO OUR VOLUNTEERS THANK YOU TO OUR VOLUNTEERS

KELLER-WILLIAMS REAL ESTATE

Keller-Williams Real Estate has been volunteering with us on their organization’s “Red Day” for numerous years and this year, they sent 38 folks who worked at two of our properties. One was a small 6 unit complex along with a house on the next lot where the volunteers worked in the community garden. They also worked on the yard of the house pruning, mowing, weeding, and general maintenance. Keller the community garden, which they delivered and spread. Part of that group also worked painting the interior of one of the homes. The other project was cleaning up the yard of a property we had just purchased, which included pruning, weeding, mowing, and general clean up.

In September, Keller Williams came back to volunteer another day to finish painting the exterior of the small 6 unit complex. The project had been rained out two previous attempts, and finally, the sun worked on our side and they were able to complete the project.

Keller Williams and Thurston County Title volunteers jumped in again in the winter to help prepare a newly purchased home for flooring and painting. On short notice, this dedicated group pulled together a small group of volunteers who took on the project with gusto.

Thurston County Realtors Association

The Thurston County Realtors Association also shares at least one day a year with Homes First. This year, they sent us 48 folks who worked at 4 different sites, all of which were yard work or blackberry clean up.

Deloitte International

For the first time, Deloitte International chose to work with Homes First on their Day of Impact. They sent 22 folks who spent their day painting the interior of a newly purchased property.
