On behalf of Fraser Valley’s 2,700-plus realtors, the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board (FVREB) has donated $21,000 to five of its region’s food banks.
“In our region alone, food banks serve approximately 22,000 people every month, many of whom are children and babies,” said board president Ray Werger.
As in previous years, the donation is divided proportionately based on the number of realtors represented in each community with $9,450 going to the Surrey Food Bank; $4,200 going to the Langley Food Bank; $3,900 going to Sources White Rock South Surrey Food Bank; $2,730 to the Abbotsford Food Bank; and $630 to St. Joseph’s Food Bank in Mission.
British Columbia’s food banks support nearly 100,000 people every year. To support your local food bank, please visit www.foodbanksbc.com. For more information about all FVREB community giving initiatives, go to www.fvreb.bc.ca.
