Throughout January, the Brunswick County Association of REALTORS® (BCAR) collected donations of winter hats, gloves and socks in support of Brunswick County Streetreach, a local nonprofit that supports the homeless.

“Since we work in a profession that helps people find their next home, it’s especially important for us to help people who are unsheltered,” said Cynthia Walsh, BCAR CEO. “The generous contributions made by our members will make a difference in our community.”

BCAR members donated 63 pairs of gloves, 64 hats, 119 pairs, and over $1,400 to Brunswick County Streetreach, a 100% volunteer charitable organization that advocates, mobilizes and provides temporary shelter, meals, and linkage to other resources for those who are unsheltered. The monetary donations will be used to purchase food cards for the organization.  For more information, please visit http://www.bcstreetreach.org/.
