The Greater Hartford Association of REALTORS® (GHAR) held a fundraiser on June 26th to raise funds for The Network, a non-profit that provides counseling, shelter and emergency care for victims of domestic abuse. Event participants enjoyed great food and beverages from three generous South Windsor restaurants: Burton's Grill, Red Heat, and Ted's Montana Grill. The evening included prizes donated by sponsors and area businesses.

GHAR would like to thank all who attended, sponsored, and gave to the night’s charity focus. GHAR is proud to present a check for $5000 to Karen Foley O’Connor, Executive Director & CEO of The Network. Proceeds from the event will provide support for programs that help victims of domestic abuse and their families.

“We are so proud to support such a worthy cause, which could not have happened without the generosity of our members, friends and businesses,” said Holly Callanan, GHAR CEO. “This event has raised tens of thousands of dollars over the years and it only gets better, in a large part, because of our dedicated Realtor volunteers.”
