Stevensville EXIT Realty Office Gives Back to the Community
Stevensville, MD (Grassroots Newswire) March 4, 2014 -- In gratitude for the support shown to EXIT Gold Realty by the local community, the real estate brokerage recently helped organize and support a fundraiser “FIT FOR A CAUSE” for C.A.S.A for Children in the Foster Care System due to Abuse or Neglect.Petra Quinn Realtor (R) with EXIT Gold Realty is also a Board Member with the non-profit organization Court Appointed Special Advocates (C.A.S.A.) Queen Anne's and Kent County Chapter. She and fellow Board Member have rallied the local business community to sponsor a charity development event "FIT for a CAUSE" to raise funds to support this worthy cause.
"Every Child deserves a voice. Imagine being taken away from the only people you know and trust, no matter how bad things were, and now have to live with total strangers in a strange house with strange people! CASA volunteers provide that voice to the child. They meet with the child, talk to them, find out what it is they want, need, fear etc. and report back to the judge. We need to make sure that every child can have their own volunteer to advocate for them for a long time to come. I knew our local business community wouldn't let us down and jump on the opportunity to help out. I am very fortunate to work for a broker who understands the importance of giving back and is the first to step up whenever and wherever help is needed." says Quinn.
"We appreciate being a part of this wonderful community and welcome the opportunity to give back," says Debbie Houck, Broker/Owner of EXIT Gold Realty.
