Our "Community Partnership" program is very simple, it is a way for us to provide an added client benefit while helping to raise monies for various local community organizations. Buy or sell your property through our real estate office and we will provide a charitable contribution to one or more of a select list of local organization of choice.
The Kinnane Group kicked off this program by assisting in the capital fundraising campaign of the Tiverton Library Foundation's new library building fund and is one of three local real estate companies that will participate in the new Community Partnership program. The additional participating real estate companies include Meeting House Properties in Little Compton, RI and McNally & Associates based in Fall River, MA.
"Charity begins at home", says Kinnane, "and this project couldn't hit any closer to home for us". Mr. Kinnane was the exclusive broker involved in a sale to Citizens-Union Savings Bank a few years ago when Gilbert & Jeanette Guimond sold their family-owned Guimond Farms property and more recently when he closed an adjacent land transaction from Citizens-Union Savings Bank to the Friends of Tiverton Library. The bank has established a beautiful branch banking and insurance facility at Bliss Four Corners and Tiverton Library Foundation has now embarked on their plans to build a brand new 30,000 sq. ft. state of the art public library facility that will become a town treasure for many years to come.
Our list of Community Partnership beneficiaries also includes the Sakonnet Arts Network, the Westport River Watershed Alliance, Little Compton Community Center, Boys and Girls Club of Fall River, Dollars for Scholars, a division of Scholarship America, and the Swansea Independent Baseball League. We see this as a responsible level of community support and involvement. Real estate brokers, by the very nature of the business, become ambassadors for the communities they serve and live in. We are the first to greet a community's new residents and what better way to show respect to their purchase decisions than for us to provide support to many of the great not-for-profit organizations that serve our local communities.
We are forging ahead with this grassroots program and we invite others to do their part. If you share these sentiments, we welcome you to help us, help others and take advantage of a tax deductible charitable contribution as either a seller or a buyer. Feel free to contact John Kinnane to obtain specific details regarding our Community Partnership program and how you too may become an active part of this Community Partnership program and give back just a little bit to one of these beautiful seaside New England towns we all have come to call home.
