Just in time for winter, real estate brokers throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington are gearing up for Windermere Real Estate’s annual Share the Warmth campaign. Now through December 21, Windermere brokers are hosting a virtual fundraiser to help local charities purchase winter necessities for community members in need. In the Bend area, the donations will benefit Bethlehem Inn and Grandma’s House.
Share the Warmth is an annual tradition that has benefited local neighborhoods through donations of coats, blankets and other items for nearly two decades. Though the COVID-19 pandemic and recent wildfires have restricted physical collection of donations, this new virtual adaptation is needed now more than ever.

“Vulnerable people in our communities continue to be severely impacted by the pandemic and recent wildfires. Helping to ensure our neighbors have the necessities they need to stay warm this winter is just one way we can step up and help,” said Scott Mitchelson, president of Windermere Services Company in Oregon and SW Washington. “Though the campaign looks different this year, we know that our communities will continue to come together to take care of each other in times of crisis.”
