Keller Williams Agents Collect 3,790 Pounds of Food for Broomfield FISH

WESTMINSTER, CO—May 26, 2011—With the recovering economy, there is still great pressure on local food banks to provide for the needs of their clients. Broomfield FISH (Fellowship In Serving Humanity) saw a 27 percent increase in demand for its services in 2010, serving more than 1,000 families and distributing more than 238,000 pounds of food.

Recognizing this great need, agents at Keller Williams Preferred Realty (11859 Pecos St. in Westminster) decided to mount a large food drive as their project for RED Day (Renew, Energize and Donate).

RED Day is an annual service initiative of Keller Williams Realty International, with each local office organizing an event in its local community. Its purpose is to show that one day can make a difference in a community.

The Keller Williams agents collected 3,790 pounds of food—plus 700 pounds from another Keller Williams office--making it the largest single day of food donations received by Broomfield FISH (www.broomfieldfish.org). The real estate office’s Culture Committee (Alan Strange, Rumaldo Ulibarri, Susan Webber and Stacy Worthington) said the “agents slammed it out of the park” with their support of the food drive.
