Last month the SRS-Cresa Lease Administration team presented a $5,000 check to their local Walk to End Alzheimer’s organization, which was made possible by the Cresa Cares Charitable Matching Program. Each year the Cresa Cares Program Board of Directors allows any 501 C3 nonprofit, or similar status for non-US based charities, to apply and be evaluated for financial support up to $5,000 per organization for charitable activities provided by offices or individuals. The SRS-Cresa Lease Administration team applied to the program for contributions made to their Walk to End Alzheimer’s team and were notified early this year that they had been selected. The check ceremony took place in the SRS-Cresa Lease Administration office with individuals from the Alzheimer’s Association present. These contributions have pushed the team well beyond their initial goal of raising $2,000 and landed them in second place for funds raised on SRS’ roster of teams across the country.
Continuing the Fight
The SRS-Cresa Lease Administration team could have sat back and considered their fundraising work done, but their dedication to the cause is just as strong as ever. Last week they held a “Taco ‘Bout a Bake Sale” event in their office lobby. Belinda Ponce and Nikki Jones provided homemade breakfast burritos, and the team also had sweet treats available to anyone in the building for donations in kind. Their bake sale event brought in $384 over two hours.
