25th Annual Community Service Day

Community Service Day 2020Thank you BHHS Fox & Roach sales associates and employees for supporting our annual Community Service Day; a day of giving back to the communities we serve!

 

Our 25th Annual Community Service Day has been extended for the entire month of October 2020! While our CSD may look a bit different this year, we will continue our legacy of giving by helping our community partners at a level that is comfortable for everyone. Please be mindful of all involved in your office or department, with our charity partners and with the clients they serve. We want everyone to remain safe and follow the protocols in place. The need now is greater than ever!

 

Please contact your charity representative(s) or manager for more information. Below you will find suggested activities that can be conducted safely with proper planning.
