The Corcoran Perry & Co. Relocation Department hasa 10 year annual tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving by sendingout made-in-Colorado thank you gifts to our referral partners. Inthe past, the department has sent out such gifts as gourmetstuffing mix, CO tourist dishtowels, tea & honey, spice boxes,wildlife cookie cutters, and Enstrom chocolates. In 2020, theCorcoran Perry & Co. Relocation Department sent out $20 Visagift cards to our referral partners and requested that the fundswere either donated to a charity or gifted to someone in need.

After sending out the gift cards, we were inundatedwith inspiring responses of how our friends chose to donate andspread cheer this Thanksgiving. Here are some of the#GivingThanksGiving stories we received that touched ourhearts:

œI will definitely be donating the money toFeeding America. It breaks my heart when I see people inmajor cities waiting in line forever to get food. It makes mecount my blessings every day.

œWe wanted to say thank you so very much forsending the $20 Visa Gift card for œGivingThanksgiving.what a wonderful idea! We wanted to letyou know how we chose to œgive in our community. Wewent out earlier today on a driving trip around town and went to alocation where we know homeless people frequent. We found ahomeless lady that was standing on the corner holding a signœPlease Help..so we decided to do just that.We gave her the card and told her there was $20 on there (we hadalready activated the card) to help her with food for her familyand we hoped she had a very blessed Thanksgivingher eyeslit-up with excitement . So, thank you and everyone at CorcoranPerry & Company for helping in our community!

œI just received the very thoughtfulThanksgiving message and gift card from you and Jon. It came at aperfect time.one of our agents just passed away andearlier today, I learned that we are taking up money to help thefamily with the burial expenses. In addition to the amount that Iwas planning to donate, I will also give your gift card and thefamily can use it to help them through this difficult time with allthe unexpected expenses.

œI used it to donate to a local charitycalled Jacob's Heart (it's like a Ronald McDonald Housefor families with children with cancer). My best friend wassupported by them when her son had cancer when he was 4. He's23 now and doing well. She has never forgotten them and nowvolunteers for the organization. She was thrilled with your givingcard idea! Happy Thanksgiving!

œThe Nebraska Humane Society will be receiving a $20donation in your name. Wishing you and yours a Healthy and SafeThanksgiving!

œWhat a thoughtful gift. I will donate the card to thePotter's Clay Ministries in Hot Springs. The Potter'sClay is a home for women and children that are homeless, batteredor abused.

œI will be sure to donate $20 in your nameto the Salvation Army.

œThank you for the note and $20 gift card for thecharity of my choice. It will be donated to All Faiths Food Bank(my favorite charity for many years, of volunteer work andgiving).
