February 2015 Newsletter from Shirley Coomer

 

I am happy to announce a great program  established to generate revenue for the Kyrene foundation through the buying and selling of homes.

I am contributing $500 per closed sale to the Kyrene Foundation when the Foundation is mentioned in the initial home buying/selling conversation.
As many of you know the Kyrene Foundation is a nonprofit 3c corporation,  which supports students, families and teachers in the Kyrene School District.  Please see the flyer below for more information.
