Better Homes and Gardens participated in “Giving Day” on March 10.

Our offices were tasked with choosing a project in which everyone could participate, and each office partnered with a local community organization for that day

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) March 31, 2012

Twenty-six San Francisco, Berkeley and Sonoma Valley real estate offices and numerous real estate agents within the Better Homes and Gardens Mason-McDuffie network, including its joint ventures with Highland Partners, Wine Country Group and Tri-Valley Realty, recently donated time and resources to complete designated projects for some 21 charities in their local communities for the company’s third annual “Giving Day” on March 10.

“Our offices were tasked with choosing a project in which everyone could participate, and each office partnered with a local community organization for that day,” said Kathy Ollerton, Director of Charities and Training for Better Homes and Gardens Mason-McDuffie. “We are pleased to say that we had hundreds of sales agents and staff give more than 2,000 hours of service to those in need.”

The company’s real estate agents and their families contributed to local San Francisco, Berkeley and Sonoma Valley area organizations, such as Abode Homeless Shelter, Chaparral House, Blue Star Moms, Children’s Village, Quinn Cottages, SF County Parks and many others.

“With nearly 100-percent participation from our office, agents contributed money, brought painting equipment and supplies and met early Saturday morning at the Sebastopol Area Senior Center. Our goal was to paint the facade of the building and the reception area. By the time our group finished, the building looked as good as new. On Monday, clients were greeted with a clean, brightly painted lobby and reception area,” Timothy Hedges, broker of the Sebastopol office, said.

Rich Wilks is a broker with the Sacramento-Midtown office that built new flowerbeds and gardens to enhance the living environment at Quinn Cottages, a transitional housing community. He applauded the residents who work to help themselves and improve their situation. In honor of them, the real estate agents wanted to give them something they could be proud of.

“All of our offices and agents were totally engaged in this endeavor: they carefully chose organizations that are close to their hearts, and truly made a difference in their communities. We really appreciate the commitment of these great real estate agents and employees,” Ollerton said.

The beauty of the house and property has not only attracted the attention of the film industry but also high-end businessmen of large companies who prefer to rent a unit from the bottom portion of the house rather than stay in a hotel.

Macy’s also took advantage of the attractive property and used it as a backdrop for their winter catalog.

This Rockingham Palace includes seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, and is located near Leona Heights Park, providing easy access to hiking, mountain biking and nature viewing. The great location is also considered a part of Oakland Hills.
