NAMAR Members Rally to Help Children of Gwinnett

The Community Service Committee for the Northeast Atlanta Metro Association of REALTORS (NAMAR) has done it again thanks to the support of the NAMAR Members! For the last 20 years, the committee, headed by Elaine Carpenter of Re/Max Advanced in Braselton, has been hosting the Santa Project with Sheltering Arms Day Care Centers in Duluth, Lawrenceville and Norcross.

Each year, they collect stuffed animals and host a party at the three centers where Santa delivers a stuffed animal to each child. The children’s ages ran from infant to 5 years old. The volunteer Santas and Elves were REALTORS or REALTOR Affiliates from NAMAR.

However, due to the overwhelming donations from NAMAR members, not only will this Christmas be brighter for the children at Sheltering Arms but also for many other children in Gwinnett and neighboring counties. NAMAR received more than 1000 stuffed animals and were able to help the Sheltering Arms Day Care Centers in Gwinnett, Gwinnett County Battered Women’s Shelter, Hall County Battered Women’s Shelter, Jackson County DFAC’s Office, Rainbow Village, Quinn House and local area police stations.

Way to go Atlanta REALTORS! We can make things happen when we all band together.
