Times are Tough
Money may be tight, stress may be high and tough times may be everywhere, but how we treat one another defines us as human beings. Kindness costs nothing. Giving costs but repays in many ways. This year our caretaker and tenants at Normandy Apartments display that tough times can be countered with kindness and generosity.
Their annual food drive was held in November this year just in time to make someone’s holidays a little brighter. Our caretaker Lisa distributed a list of items most needed by the food shelf and a paper bag to each tenant. Those wanting to participate placed their items in the bag and set it outside their door on collection day, Saturday, November 14.
Even more tenants participated this year and 89 pounds of food was donated to the local food shelf. Normandy Apts is only 16 units which averages out to 5 and half pounds for each unit. Nicely done by those living at Normandy.
Great job done by Lisa, who organized the event long before Van Binsbergen & Associates became management for this property. Lisa also delivers thank you cards to each of the tenants who participated taking kindness one step farther.
Our office would like to give special thanks to Lisa for the great job she does with this event, the tenants, and overall work she does for the property! You are deeply appreciated by many.
Thanks for the mention. The food drive is such a good cause and its so simple to do. The generosity of the tenants at Normandy make this event a huge success year after year. Lisa
You do a great job and we appreciate everything you do. We’ve started the annual food drive at Burnsdale Apartments in Montevideo. Starts today! Always fun to carry forward a great idea.
