Thank you to all who contributed silent auction gift baskets for our Holiday Party. The creativity and thought that went into the baskets is appreciated. We had 36 offices participate, which is amazing for the first year doing this project!
Thank you also to those who bid on baskets. I’m excited to share that we raised over $15,000 for the VBR Foundation's academic scholarship program for 2020! This is an increase of 81 percent from last year's auction.
Drum roll please… The people's choice for the most creative gift basket at the party was the "Broker's Oh Sh*t Survival Kit" donated by Slifer Smith & Frampton Bridge Street. This basket was filled to the brim with anything and everything you may need during your day as a Realtor. From tools and lightbulbs, to Moet champagne, candy, Advil, and stamps. Need a thank you note? It was included. There was even a lottery ticket!
Also, 2019 was the VBR Foundation's second year participating in Colorado Gives Day. The VBRF raised $800 this year, which is an increase of 166 percent from last year. Thank you to those who donated on December 10.
