Thank you to all who participated. Shelter Garage Sale raises record $300,000!

Date:         May 20, 2010

Thanks to your hard work, enthusiasm, creativity, team work and passion we have collectively mounted the biggest fundraiser in the history of the Shelter Foundation and the biggest charity garage sale ever in Canada.  This year's National Garage Sale for Shelter has exceeded our wildest expectations - we've raised over $300,000!  Over $1,600 locally in Charlottetown Alone

together to host the 2nd annual National Garage Sale for Shelter, with 100% of proceeds going to help women and children living with abuse.

Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company with its own charity

The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation has raised more than $10 million to support women and children living in shelters across Canada.  Through agent commission contributions and the fundraising activities of the Royal LePage network, we are helping to provide a safe haven and new beginnings to more than 30,000 women and children each year.  To break the cycle of violence, the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation also supports long-term violence prevention and education programs.  All funds raised by Royal LePage offices remain in their local community and because Royal LePage pays the costs of administration, 100% of all money and effort goes toward this important cause.
 

Let’s put abuse out of commission!
