A Bucks County home realtor organization recently supplied local families in need with Thanksgiving meals for the holiday season.

Through recent donations, the Bucks County Association of Realtors, based out of Warminster, was able to supply over 125 families in need with healthy Thanksgiving meals.

In Bucks County, 10.4% of residents face food insecurity, lacking access to affordable, nutritious food. The recent donation will help to make a difference for the large amount of families helped by this initiative.

“We want everyone to be able to enjoy Thanksgiving,” said Lynn Sharer, President of the Bucks County Association of Realtors. “Thanks to the generosity of the [Realtors] community, this year we are able to distribute over 125 Thanksgiving dinner bags to families who otherwise would have had a hard time buying food for a Thanksgiving meal on their own.” 

On Nov. 7, the Bucks County Association of Realtors Reach Out Committee came together to sort and pack donations from all over the county. The primary collection points were real estate offices throughout the county. Many agents in the county went into their local neighborhoods and collected donations.  The dinners were then delivered to the Bucks County Housing Group. 

 “This event truly brings [Realtors] together to serve the community they love. We have so much to be thankful for and we are fortunate to have the opportunity to work alongside our fellow [Realtors] and affiliate members from different offices throughout Bucks County to share our gratitude with the community,” said Co-Chairs Jessica Finnell and Susan Langenstein of Bucks County Association of Realtor’s Reach Out Committee.
