Community Service Day

Our work is not about houses. It's about people.

We're in the business of selling houses. But more importantly, we're helping people find a place they can call home. Our commitment to service extends beyond each real estate transaction. Every year since 1984, Windermere associates have skipped work for a day to complete neighborhood improvement projects.

Not only is Community Service Day a great opportunity to give back to the communities where we live and work, it also gives us a chance to work together. We clean, landscape and repair parks, playgrounds, schools, shelters and community buildings. Each office selects a project that best serves its community needs.

After all, real estate is rooted in our communities. And an investment in our neighborhoods gives us all a better place to call home.

Past projects have included cleaning, landscaping, painting and light carpentry to benefit senior citizens centers, facilities for physically and mentally challenged children and adults, public schools, low income housing and emergency shelters, among others.

Community Service Day has been recognized by several local and national organizations for its community improvement projects. The City of Las Vegas recognized Windermere Real Estate with a Windermere Proclamation Day for October 15, 2008, for all the volunteer hours that has been served in Las Vegas.
