As winter approaches, Windermere Real Estate brokers are teaming up to Share the Warmth by providing essential winter items for those in need. As part of the annual campaign, the Windermere offices in Bend and Sunriver will be collecting donations from October 28 – December 20 to benefit Bethlehem Inn, Central Oregon Veterans Outreach, Three Rivers School for Youth and LaPine Activity Center. This year, the organizations are asking for coats, winter hats, waterproof gloves and boots, wool socks, snow pants and long underwear in all sizes, as well as blankets and hand warmers.
Those who wish to contribute can stop by participating Windermere offices (listed below) to drop off donations. In Bend and Sunriver, many local businesses are also collecting items to be donated. Community members can find those alternate drop-off locations here.

“We’re proud to see how our brokers and community members come together each year to support those in need during the winter season,” said Christine Wood, executive director of the Windermere Foundation. “The Share the Warmth campaign is a reflection of Windermere’s deep-rooted dedication to making a positive impact within the communities where we live and work.”
