Girls in the poorest regions of the world are more likely than boys to be malnourished and be denied access to education. Studies show that when a girl has enough to eat, a safe environment and an education, she’ll work to raise the standard of living for herself and her family, according to Plan International, a charity focused on third-world issues since 1937. Sutton Group – Central Realty in Toronto recently became a corporate sponsor for Plan Canada’s Because I am a Girl project. The office is committed to raising $5,000 for the charity by May 2014. Its first fundraiser is a unique calendar.
It features professional photographs of broker/manager Richard Sloan and broker Chris Luxemburger. Each is posed with something pink against a black and white background. Calendars are available for $10 at both the Toronto and Brampton offices of the brokerage or by visiting www.maytomay.ca.
