Belvidere REALTOR® tree decorators included (l to r): Kierstyn VanCleave, REALTOR® LeeAnn Sackett, REALTOR® Angie Wait-Weber and Alivia Hyder.
The Belvidere Board of REALTORS® donated more than $600 in gifts and decorations to a local family in need during the Belvidere Hometown Christmas event last week.
The sponsored family consisted of a father, mother and five children ranging from 6 to 18 years old, says Belvidere Association Executive Karen Thomas.
The family received Christmas gifts and gift cards from the Belvidere REALTORS® as well as a live Christmas tree with lights, decorations and a tree skirt. The gifts and decorations were purchased using donations from Belvidere members.
Belvidere-area REALTORS® Leann Sackett and Angie Wait-Weber decorated the tree for the family using a cookie and candy theme.
