Volunteer for Silver Horizons on Saturday, October 28th

Make a Difference Day is a national day of giving back when volunteers gather to make a difference in their communities.

This year, the GAAR Board of Directors has selected Silver Horizons, the REALTOR® Fund grant recipient for 2022 for this annual volunteer project. Volunteers will help organize a mobile food pantry to provide free groceries to Senior shoppers. Invite your friends, family, or colleagues to join you. There is no age limit.
