Exciting times... I have been honored by being asked and now officially voted onto the Board of Directors of a wonderful organization that is making real differences in our neighbor's lives.

I have been a supporter, volunteer and all around fan of Rebuilding Together St Louis for 10 years now. I was introduced to them through my volunteer service with the St Louis REALTORS®.

So I will keep everyone in the know about ways you can help support Rebuilding Together St Louis through out the year. Save the Date for the trivia night on Friday Sept. 11. We will have a Rebuild Day in the Fall where you can volunteer working in our client's home making it safe for them. I will get more info out soon.

You can always make a monetary donation to help us as well throughout the year. Check out their website and please like their FB page https://rebuildingtogether.org/ https://www.facebook.com/WeAreRebuilders
