Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Community Foundation has raised more than $95,000 for Habitat for Humanity during the company's recent annual fundraising campaign. The donations were the result of a month-long community-wide raffle held throughout Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage's 57 Northern California offices. Entitled “Homes and Hope,” this was the company's 16th annual fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity, the nonprofit organization that helps low-income families build their own homes. Over the past 15 years, the Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Community Foundation has raised more than $2.5 million for Habitat for Humanity chapters in Northern California. The Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage team has also volunteered more 50,000 hours and participated in the construction of nearly 200 Habitat for Humanity homes.
