'RED Day' Set to Lend a Hand in Royal Oak

Keller Williams associates may be taking the day off on Thursday, May 9 but it will hardly be a day of rest. Associates with the Royal Oak Market Center have chosen to “Give Where They Live” as part of RED Day, one of the biggest events in the real estate industry.

Short for “Renew, Energize and Donate,” RED Day was created to unite Keller Williams Realty offices and associates in an international day of service.

As part of the RED Day effort, Royal Oak Market Center has chosen to spend the day with Joe Zimmel at 2606 N Vermont.  Joe is a veteran and long-time resident of Royal Oak and they will be giving back to Joe by cleaning out his garage and landscaping his backyard.

“This event is an entrenched part of Keller Williams Realty’s culture and displays the extraordinary effect a company can have when individuals come together to work as a team for the greater good of everyone,” said Team Leader Denise Bellore.  “Last year, we painted the exterior of a Royal Oak resident’s home. We can’t tell you what an impact it made on each of us personally - it felt so great to give back to the community we know and love.”

Since the first RED Day in 2009, Keller Williams associates have given almost a half million hours of community service through activities ranging from food and blood drives to cleaning up trash in public parks, revamping gardens at nursing homes and rebuilding homes and schools for community members in need. To this day, it is one of the largest events in the real estate industry.
