$6,440 raised to help Yuma students attend school with confidence
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – The Yuma Association of Realtors’ Community Outreach Committee said they raised $6,440.
In a press release, the money was raised to benefit School House Outfitters, which is a program “dedicated to providing economically disadvantaged students with the clothing, shoes, school supplies, books, and hygiene essentials they need to begin the school year with confidence.”
The funds were raised during the Association’s Nomination Luncheon this month, where it featured a Brokerage Challenge, which encourages brokerages to sponsor a child, a Heads & Tails fundraising game, and additional member donations.
“This incredible generosity is a reflection of what makes Yuma such a special community,” said Maria Ramirez, President of School House Outfitters. “Every dollar raised helps provide a child with the essentials they need to walk into school feeling prepared, valued, and confident. We are deeply grateful to the Yuma Association of REALTORS® and every member who chose to invest in the future of our local students.”
“Our members understand that being a REALTOR® means more than helping families find a home, it means helping build a stronger community,” said Heather Heiligenthal, President of the Yuma Association of REALTORS®. “The response from our members was inspiring, and we’re honored to partner with School House Outfitters to help ensure local students have the resources they need to thrive.”
