Dear Members,
First of all I want to thank everyone who responded to our recent Be The Change/Project Hand Up paper drive. The folks at Project Hand Up were delighted to receive KWAOR's rainy-day delivery of a carload of paper towels, toilet paper and tissues--much-needed items in any winter, but especially as Covid-19 is surging. The KWAOR members who took time to deliver their donations to our office, and several others who made donations directly to the project are some of the reasons I love being a REALTOR ®. We truly are a force to be reckoned with!
Last but not least, please know that we wish you all peaceful and restful holidays. Be on the lookout for a little something from your KWAOR Board and Staff in your US mail box.
Stay safe,
Greg Eccleston, President
