Century 21 Dome Realty supports community with donation to Easter Seals. (Off the Wire).


Century 21 Dome Realty Limited recently announced its 2002 contributions to the Saskatoon and Regina chapters of Easter Seals totaled $58,341. Its participation this past year marked the office's 12th year of being affiliated with the charitable foundation.

For the past six years Century 21 Dome Realty offices have raised additional money to send an Easter Seals child and their family from Saskatchewan to Disneyland. This year's winner is Amanda Walliser from Estevan.

As a thank-you for sponsoring the Century 21 Dome Relay teams, Century 21 Dome entered all donor's names in a draw for two, $2,100-travel vouchers (compliments of Century 21 Dome Realty and Uniglobe Action Travel). This year's winners were John Dechief of Regina and Cliff Beattie of Saskatoon.

Fundraisers sponsored by Century 21 Dome Realty Limited include a variety of office events as well as participation in the 24-Hour Relay. Both Regina and Saskatoon were awarded Top Fundraiser Awards at the 24-Hour Relay this year.

"Our relationship with Easter Seals enables our sales associates and employees not only to give something back to our community, but to help raise awareness of this worthwhile and reputable foundation." Said Francis Bast, general manager of Century 21 Dome Realty Limited. "It is a great feeling to know that our contributions go directly toward helping people with disabilities achieve independence. Our funds raised this year will send approximately 65 children with disabilities to Camp Easter Seals at Watrous."

The Century 21 System's total contribution to the Easter Seal Society since 1979 is more than $68 million -- making it the largest corporate sponsor in Easter Seals' history. All funds are raised through "grassroots" efforts at local Century 21 offices and go to Easter Seal programs in the communities in which the moneys were raised.

The Easter Seal Society is a non-profit, community-based voluntary health agency, dedicated to increasing the independence of people with disabilities. More than one million adults, children and their families benefit from Easter Seal services, programs and advocacy efforts.

Century 21 Dome Realty limited is a full-service real estate company serving Saskatoon and Regina with five locations. Century 21 Dome Realty Limited is a proud sponsor of the Air Miles[R] Reward Program.
