The team at Sutton Premier Realty in Surrey, B.C. made the holidays brighter for 18 local families.
On Dec. 20 they delivered personalized gifts to parents and children as well as enough food to provide a delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner on Christmas Day. The office raised $8,000 for the Surrey Christmas Bureau’s Adopt-a-Family program with silent auctions, poker nights and other fundraisers throughout the year.
“Each Realtor chose a family from a list provided by the Surrey Christmas Bureau and budgeted $400 to $450 each,” says sales rep Janis Stretch. “They then called the parents personally to speak to them about their food and beverage preferences and the children’s wish lists.”
Sutton Realty Services co-owner Scott Shaw and the head of franchise relations, Rick Taron, joined in the festivities. The morning began with a hot, homemade breakfast prepared by sales rep Neru Johal, and then everyone loaded up their vehicles to make deliveries to the families.
