Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group recently completed its annual Cabernet Sleigh drive, a company-wide holiday initiative benefitting Metropolitan Ministries. Driving a U-Haul truck, Owners Allen Crumbley and Dewey Mitchell as well as some other elves (staff members) delivered 6,000 pounds of food, over 2,000 toys, and over $4,000 in gift cards and cash to the local nonprofit, Metropolitan Ministries.

The annual drive, which takes place throughout the firm’s branch offices in the months leading up to the holidays, benefits thousands of families who are helped by Metropolitan Ministries, a local non-profit that provides food, shelter, resources, counseling, education, and job training services to alleviate suffering, promote, dignity and instill self-sufficiency for low-income and homeless families in Tampa Bay.

“This year’s Cabernet Sleigh drive was incredibly successful, and the agents and staff from our offices did a phenomenal job promoting, shopping, donating, and more,” said Allen Crumbley, Broker/Owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group. “It makes this time of year even more meaningful to see our company and its clients come together in support of local families, and it has been heartwarming to help families in need, especially in a year like this year.”

“One of our company goals is to give back to the communities in which we live and work, and we believe strongly in the mission and work of Metropolitan Ministries,” said Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group Broker/Owner Dewey Mitchell. “Our goal for the future is to continue to strengthen our partnership with the organization and provide even more hope for local residents and families.”
