Giving
back to the community is very important to the Don Callahan Real Estate Group. These
are the fantastic organizations that we are involved with.
SURFERS FOR AUTISM
SURFERS FOR AUTISM
On September 7th we will be part of the Surfers for Autism
event on Tybee. SFA began in 2007 when a simple idea was presented to a small
group of South Florida surfers by a member whose life and family have been
touched by autism. "At a SFA event, our surfers are provided a safe
environment where two to four highly skilled and trained surf instructors
carefully guide them into waves. Our surfers and their families are treated
like rock stars and enjoy a day filled with a range of activities including
stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, live music, face-painting, games, bounce
houses, fire engine tours and much more." We are honored to be part of the
Tybee event as a sponsor and as volunteers. We are also thrilled that our team
has take in upon themselves to make a donation to SFA with each transaction! It
is a simple way we can give back to our community and support such a worthy
cause.
The Ossabaw Island Foundation, through a public-private partnership with
the State of Georgia, inspires, promotes, and manages exceptional educational,
cultural, and scientific programs that are designed to maximize the experience
of Ossabaw Island, while minimizing the impact on its resources. The
Ossabaw Island Annual Fall Pig Roast and Art Auction is the only annual
fundraiser hosted by the Ossabaw Island Foundation (TOIF). Funds raised go to
support TOIF. We've always loved Ossabaw and attend the Pig Roast each year.
This year, we are proud to be a sponsor of the 12 Annual Pig Roast! See you in
October!
Citizen advocacy is built on one-to-one, freely given
personal relationships between two people. One is a person with a developmental
disability who has often been excluded from typical community life, and the
other is a person who is living a good, ordinary life here in our community. We
love supporting this great grass-roots organization and look forward to the
annual covered dish supper each Spring. It's always a great mix of people from
all walks of life and definitely an event not to be missed!
The Forsyth
Farmers Market was conceived and planned to provide all members of Savannah’s
community a welcoming, inclusive place to purchase local food and address
food access issues. Despite some logistical challenges, Forsyth Park was
chosen because it is a beautiful, public place in Savannah where everyone feels
welcome. The market is open on Saturdays at the South end of Forsyth. Be sure
to stop in and check it out!
As the true Hostess City of the South, Savannah has shown
and reinvented herself many times over. With such an eclectic setting of
individuals and places, Savannah is one of the most intriguing and beautiful
backdrops for any organization. With that, The Savannah Pride Organization is
proud to call this historic city home. With over ten years of celebration,
awareness, and unity, SPs mission of unity through diversity, and social
awareness has helped promote the well-being of the LGBT community in the South.
Don has been a supporter of Pride since Day ONE!
The vision of the
Humane Society for Greater Savannah is a community where every pet has a safe
and loving home with a responsible owner. As you know, we're a pet-loving team
around here. Several team members have rescue dogs; a couple of which came from
the Humane Society. We've made donations, walked the dogs ourselves, and once
had a holiday party and asked our guest to bring dog or cat food instead of
presents. It's the least we could do for an organization so close to home for
many of us.
Established in 2003, KW Cares is a 501(c)(3) public charity that raises money through Keller Williams offices across North America, in order to provide emergency financial assistance to any member of the KW family in need and other charities aligned with the mission and values of Keller Williams Realty and KW Cares. Part of the KW culture is giving where you live. Making a contribution to KW Cares with each transaction is a simple way we can help our KW family.
Red Day (Renew, Energize and Donate) is an initiative dedicated to celebrating Keller Williams Realty’s year-round commitment to improving our local communities. Each year, on the second Thursday in May, tens of thousands of associates from across the United States and Canada participate in a wide range of projects, devoting their time to renewing and energizing aspects of the neighborhoods in which they serve. Some of our Savannah projects have included the Fresh Air Home on Tybee and the West Broad YMCA.
