Burnaby, BC – Regina Dutt and John Patricelli of Sutton – Centre have just announced that  they will once again be coordinators for the Realtors Care Blanket Drive.   As leaders in the community, the coordinators assist in helping to encourage donations, coordinate pick-ups of donations, and sort and distribute the coats and blankets directly to those in the need in the community.   The 9th Annual Realtors Care Blanket Drive kicks off on Wednesday, December 1 and represents one of the largest team efforts in the real estate community.   Sales associates from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board pitch in by donating their time, talents, and funds to bring a little warm to those in need this holiday season.
Every day there are men, women and children in the Lower Mainland who have nowhere to call home.   Others live in substandard housing without proper heat or a warm meal.   Everyone can do something to help.

Last year, the Realtors Care Blanket Drive collected 1,751 bags of blankets, coats, clothing and other donations, which were given to charities and local outreach groups across the Lower Mainland such as the Union Gospel Mission, The Lookout, and SAGE House.

Regina and John  are asking you to donate your extra blankets, warm clothing, sleeping bags and non-perishable food items   in this year’s Blanket Drive.   Your generosity can make a difference.

Please help bring some warmth to our communities.

For more information, please contact Regina Dutt at Sutton – Centre Realty Phone: (604) 435-9477, visit the website http://www.realtorscare.org/BlanketDrive/ or drop off your donations at a Sutton office.
