Here are different ways we give back to our community and get involved in local charities around the Treasure Valley.

McFerrin Real Estate is bringing some Christmas Cheer by giving away $500 for 5 days! Between now and December 15th, we are asking for your help to nominate someone in our community who could use a little extra holiday happiness this year. Thank you for supporting our business abundantly this past year. It truly means the world to give back to the community we love so much.

Reading the stories of so many local nominations of those who could us a little Christmas cheer or help this holiday season was humbling. There is no greater gift I could have received this year than seeing the smile and sense of relief after gifting $500 to these 5 families that are so strong and inspiring. From a single mother raising children with special needs on her own while working two jobs, to grandparents who have taken their grandchildren in due to incarcerated parents, to individuals holding onto hope and strength after receiving a cancer diagnosis. This experience definitely made me realize how much more I want to do in the future, and there are so many that can use help right in our neighborhoods. Together we truly can make a difference.
