Sacramento Association of Realtors "Young Professionals Council" Raised over $4,000 for the Salvation Army CanTree!


Ever heard of the Christmas CanTree Project? This is the 27th year for CanTree, which is one of the major charitable efforts of the Sacramento Association of Realtors. The Christmas CanTree Project routinely raises more than $65,000 per year. Since 1983, SAR has raised more than $2 million to feed Sacramento's hungry citizens.

I am proud to say that on November 13, the Sacramento Association of Realtors "Young Professionals Council" held its first ever formal dance gala event to benefit the Salvation Army CanTree.

We had over a hundred attendees at our event that danced to dj music, sampled food from some great local restaurants (Zocolo, BJ's Brewery, and Tokyo Fro), sampled wine from local wineries (Carvalho, Revolution Wines, and Ehrheart), and bid on silent auction items from numerous local donors...when the night was over, we had raised approximately $4,620 for the Salvation Army CanTree!
