Season of Giving

The sales associates of Prudential Carolinas Realty concluded their biannual food drive in October and collected enough money and canned food donations to provide 24,335 meals through Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina. Donations were collected through office fundraisers and donations from clients, sales associates and staff. The company’s next donation collection month will be April 2013.
