Acting on behalf of the St. Thomas and Elgin County Members of the London and St. Thomas Association of REALTORS® (LSTAR), Earl Taylor, who sits on LSTAR’s Board of Directors representing the City of St. Thomas, as well as REALTOR® Jim Harris presented Christmas Care Coordinator Andreanna Collins with a cheque for $985, a sum that included a $500 donation from LSTAR, along with a cart full of non-perishable food.
Christmas Care provides holiday hampers to people in need and relies on donations of non-perishable food, toys, and money. This year Christmas Care hopes to help over 1,500 local families, each of which will receive a care box that includes a turkey or ham and a week’s worth of food, along with toys for every child and teenager.
“Over the past 4 years, we have donated almost $8,500 along with a few hundred pounds of non-perishable food to Christmas Care,” says Taylor. “REALTORS® are all about building better communities and what better way to do that than to take care of the less fortunate among us, especially children?”
