Home Sweet Henrico Facebook Fans Make Difference

Giving back doesn’t have to be a difficult thing. It can be as simple as helping an older lady out to her car, throwing some change into a collection container at McDonald's, or by simply becoming a fan on a Facebook page. Come again?
Recently Home Sweet Henrico Real Estate created a business page on Facebook. As a way to spread the news, I decided to make the following “challenge” : for each person who becomes a fan, I will donate one canned good to a local food bank or charity. Did it work? I would say it was a success! Friends and strangers came together and collectively accumulated 78 cans of filling, HEALTHY vegetables!
I had the privilege of donating the food today to a local food pantry. The cans will go to feeding the homeless and to families who need an extra hand on getting food on the table.
I would like to thank each and every one of those “fans” for not only making my Facebook business page a success, but for taking a tiny moment to make a real difference in the lives of those who are less fortunate.
And, I would also like to issue other businesses this challenge: what can YOU do have a successful and DUTIFUL business? Think about it as the possibilities are endless!
