Keller Williams Annual Red Day

This year Keller Williams leaders and associates came to the YWCA Greater Newburyport to volunteer for their annual day of service. “Red Day” held every second Thursday in May in celebration of Keller Williams vice-chairman Mo Anderson’s birthday. Each year KW leaders and associates gear up to Renew, Energize, and Donate, through community, culture, and KW’s shared commitment to philanthropy. The volunteers spent the day cleaning, weeding, and landscaping around the YWCA at 11 and 13 Market Street in Newburyport. Thanks to their effort and commitment our campus looks beautiful. With donations from Cole Landscaping Inc. of mulch, and Port Paint of 10 galloons of paint and accessories to be used to spruce up the Residence at Salisbury Square. Thank you again for all the hard work, it was inspiring to watch this group from Keller Williams.
