Recipient -2009 SKCAR Service Award

Bob is the proud recipient of the Seattle King County Realtor's Community service award for his continuing work on Klahanie's Annual Food Drive.

Annual KLAHANIE Food Drive

Bob has been sponsoring the Annual Klahanie Food Drive since 1988 to benefit the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank. He estimates that the drive has provided more than 85,000 pounds of food to the food bank over the past two decades. Every year Bob publicizes the event, and then sets up a central location within Klahanie to receive donations. To encourage participation, pumpkins are given away to everyone who donates. He notes: "We couldn't do this without the community's generosity".

Commuinty Service Day

Making our neighborhoods better places to live. The old adage, "many hands make light work," has been put into practice since 1984. All Windermere agents dedicate one day each year to work together on neighborhood improvement projects. Community Service Day is a great opportunity to give back to the communites where we live and work, and gives us a chance to work together.

Windermere Foundation

The Puget Sound Business Journal repeatedly recognizes Windermere Real Estate as a major philanthropist in the Puget Sound area.

Windermere's charitable dollars go to multiple agencies serving low-income or homeless families in Puget Sound neighborhoods via the Windermere Foundation. One of the Foundation's primary focuses continues to be the nurturing of "at-risk" children and youth who are currently living on the fringes of poverty.

Recipient social service organizations use Windermere Foundation grants on a broad variety of programs offering: food and clothing basics, summer camps, scholarships and after-school enrichment programs.
