WCR’s December Auction a Huge Success!

Patty Purington, President of the Women’s Council of Realtors in Livingston County, sent out a boatload of thanks to all the Realtors, staff and Oak Pointe Country Club for their incredibly successful Annual Auction held on December 15th in Brighton. The proceeds resulted in a $4,000 contribution to The Connection Youth Services!
This worthy organization, located in Howell, helps teens and their families in crisis with a 24-hour emergency assistance and referral service, plus education help, employment, counseling and support. The Connection provides safe housing and shelter for teens 12-17 years old. They also assist homeless 16-21 year olds with finding host homes or affordable apartments.

Since they’re a non-profit United Way agency, most of their funds come from state and federal grants. Teens this year will certainly have a better Christmas, due to WCR’s generosity!

RE/MAX Platinum’s Janene Spencer-Zweng represented our company, along with other WCR members participating—Carole Bullion, Kim Foster and Zach Bux, Santa Carl & Louise Starbird, Kevin Shingeck, Joan Humphrey, Joan Fletcher, Carrie Woodruff, Sherrie Grant, Tonya Dulek, Karen Gill, Penny Lamb, Nicole Bartolomucci, Kathyn Wutz, Beth Ann Clauser, Terry Gill, Danielle Boote and Carrie Aeschliman.
With so much help, no wonder Patty was aglow with Christmas spirit!
