Royal LePage Realtors recently gathered in Montreal for a networking and celebration event to mark the company’s 100th anniversary. Attendees also took the opportunity to show their support of the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation through a variety of fundraisers, including a live auction for a piece of artwork that was painted over the course of the day as attendees looked on. The top bidder for the prize was brokerage owner Jacinthe Dubé from Sherbrooke, Que., who bid $7,000 for the piece. The 50/50 draw winner, Vasiliki Kapantais, donated her half of the prize back to the foundation. In total, $10,783 was raised, with 100 per cent of funds going to the Marie-Vincent Foundation.
