Each fall for the past 17 years, Allen Tate Realtors® have gathered to support a cause that is near and dear to them. It’s a cause that impacts their local communities; and one that makes a huge difference to their chosen livelihood.
We call it FUNday. In short, it’s a fundraiser for public education.
On FUNday, Allen Tate agents, employees and guests “pay to play” and raise money for local public education organizations. Since it began, FUNday has taken the form of a field day, tailgate picnic, community workday, and evening reception.
In 2014, FUNday was held as four separate regional events throughout the company’s footprint in North and South Carolina. More than 1,100 agents, employees, guests and sponsors were in attendance. To date, FUNday has raised more than $1.52 million for public education in our 40 local communities across the Carolinas.
Plans are currently underway for FUNday 2015 regional events which will take place this September in the Triad; October in the Triangle and Charlotte, and November in the Upstate.
In addition to our annual FUNday events to raise money for public education, the Allen Tate Companies also raise money for two other major initiatives under the Tate Cares giving umbrella: arts, culture and history and United Way agencies. During our spring 2015 Tate Cares campaign, Allen Tate Realtors® and employees contributed more than $104,000 to local arts and cultural programs and United Way agencies.
We are proud of the generosity and commitment shown by our Realtors, leaders and staff who continually do their part to dramatically impact quality of life – both in the classroom and in the community.
