CB Bain’s Community Partnership program adds up

Coldwell Banker Bain reports it has raised $1.92 million for nonprofits through its Community Partnership program, from its start in 1988 to the end of 2017.

CB Bain brokers partnered with 155 nonprofits in 2017, according to a news release, with contributions averaging $1,603.

Under the Community Partnership program, each time a broker-supported nonprofit refers a real estate client that results in a closed transaction, the broker and CB Bain donate an amount equal to 10 percent of the commission to that nonprofit.

Coldwell Banker Bain of Madison Park brokers Carrie Haymond and Lisa Turnure have contributed nearly $5,000 to Broadway Bound and REJoyce Fundamentals Academy, according to the news release.

“We are so proud of the efforts of our brokers in making this program a success,” said CB Bain president and COO Mike Grady in the release. “We appreciate the work these wonderful organizations are doing in our communities, and believe it’s important for us to give back in markets where we work.”
