OXFORD – Bearfoot Realty recently raised $28,000 in donations from local clients, business partners and community members for Rightstart’s Christmas for Teens Program, via its Dec. 8 holiday open house at Oxbow Beer Garden, on Main Street. This year’s event was Bearfoot’s ninth holiday open house to raise money for Christmas for Teens, achieving a record for annual donations.
“Bearfoot Realty is proud to be a longstanding supporter of Rightstart’s Christmas for Teens Program and their efforts helping Oxford Hills teens during the holidays,” said Monica LaVerdiere, owner of Bearfoot Realty. “I am so thankful and appreciative of the work put in by the Bearfoot Realty team, as well as amazing support from clients, partners and members of the community to make this year’s fundraiser the best one yet.”
The $28,000 donation supported Rightstart’s ongoing efforts to deliver gifts to Oxford Hills teens who otherwise would have little or no Christmas.
“We are so grateful for the efforts of the Bearfoot Realty Team in helping deserving teens in the Oxford Hills enjoy Christmas,” said Jean Delamater, Christmas for Teens program director. “Thanks to Monica and all who donated for their continued support; it has made a real difference.”
