The Hudson Gateway REALTOR® Foundation, the charitable arm of the Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS®, donated a total of $40,000 to 20 charities and non-profit organizations throughout the Hudson Valley and beyond in 2020 As it enters its eighth year of fundraising, the Foundation is gearing up for another successful year of providing financial assistance to those organizations dedicated to helping the needy in the New York metro area and elsewhere.
“We are thrilled to be able to provide help to all of the wonderful non-profit organizations that continue to make a difference in the lives of individuals and families in our communities,” said Maryann Tercasio, President of the Hudson Gateway REALTOR® Foundation. “We are extremely grateful for the generosity of our Realtor members, colleagues, and sponsors who have made all of these donations possible.”
Despite the COVID pandemic, the Foundation managed to hold several virtual fundraising events including a cooking demonstration, various online fundraising events and a Holiday concert. In October, the Foundation held a “socially distanced” pasta class at Pax Romana in White Plains. “While we were disappointed that we could not hold our popular Pub Nights and a major gala this year, we are delighted that we were still able to raise funding from our online events,” added Bonnie Koff, Chair of the HG REALTOR® Fundraising Committee. “Thank you so much to all who participated in and donated to the Foundation this year.”
