FAMILIES BENEFIT FROM DAVID WEEKLEY HOMES THANKSGIVING DRIVE

DENVER, CO (December 8, 2015): David Weekley Homes hosted a company-wide Thanksgiving Drive and collected more than 100,000 pounds of turkey and nonperishable items.

In Denver, the Thanksgiving Drive benefited Denver Rescue Mission, an organization that helps to meet the needs of the poor and homeless through emergency services, community outreach, long-term rehabilitation, transitional programs and assistance for permanent housing. 

Approximately 26 frozen turkeys and 600 pounds of nonperishable items were collected during the two-week drive. Denver team members delivered the food items to the organization to distribute to families in time for the holiday.

“We are very grateful to David Weekley Homes for the continued support,” said Lisette Williams, Manager of Community Relations, Denver Rescue Mission.

The drive was an initiative of the company’s CARE program, which is a charitable and volunteer program that joins team members with homeowners, homebuyers, community partners and local nonprofit organizations to live out its purpose, Building Dreams, Enhancing Lives in all the communities in which it builds. This is accomplished by company team members volunteering countless hours to different organizations in their communities and by The David Weekley Family Foundation donating more than $100 million to a variety of organizations throughout the U.S. and abroad over the past 20 years.
