Keller Williams City View teams up with Malik Rose for Nat'l Red Day to give back to kids & Troops

SAN ANTONIO - May 4, 2016 - PRLog -- Keller Williams Realty associates may be taking the day off on Thursday, May 12, 2016, but it will hardly be a day of rest. Associates with the KW City View Center have chosen to "Give Where They Live" as part of RED Day, one of the biggest events in the real estate industry.

RED DAY is Short for "Renew, Energize and Donate," RED Day was created to unite Keller Williams Realty offices and associates in an international day of service across the world.

As part of the RED Day effort, KW City View along with their ambassador Malik Rose have chosen to spend the day at an elementary school in Edgewood ISD and and at the Warrior and Family Support center in SA for their RED Day activities.  Throughout the day KW will be revamping areas of the elementary school with mulch for the playgrounds, creating a Soccer field for the children to play during school and a place for the community to enjoy when school is out, Painting, planting, mulching, building maintenance, needed repairs and more. "We plan on this very deserving elementary school being a long term project for us as we would love to be an integral part of the community and bettering the lives of the children and their families", says Sara McCaffrey, Agent and leading the project.  They will also be joined at the school by SAPD officers to host a lunch and a fun day and create a carefree afternoon for these kids with face painting, games, prizes and more.

During their time at the Warrior and Family Support center they will be doing extensive landscape and garden work. Their goal is to make these facilities more aesthetically pleasing for some kids, soldiers and their families who are recovering from their injuries and deserve some much needed rest and recovery.

Red Day extends into the Hill Country offices as well with City View's Boerne, Kerrville and Fredericksburg locations working with the local food banks in their communities.

"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, Amy Clifton. In  past years we have worked with dozens of deserving organizations and 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."

During RED Day 2016, over 60,000 Keller Williams associates will participate in activities ranging from food and blood drives to cleaning up trash in public parks, doing yard work for neighbors in need or revamping gardens at nursing homes totaling more than 190,000 hours of service making RED Day one of the biggest events in the real estate industry.
