Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Nevada Properties Gives 44,000 Bottles of Water to Las Vegas Rescue Mission
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Nevada Properties donated 44,000 bottles of water to the Las Vegas Rescue Mission during its fourth annual water drive to benefit the charity. Las Vegas Rescue Mission gives the water to its homeless clients during Las Vegas’ hottest summer months.

“This annual water drive is one of several in which all of our 1,100 real estate professionals and 60 staff members in Southern Nevada participate,” said Diane Ray, the event’s organizer. “Water is something most of us are lucky to have in abundance. But for our homeless population it can mean the difference between life and death when the summer heat is at its peak.”

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Nevada Properties worked with partners Red Carpet Movers and Office Depot for this year’s water drive. Red Carpet Movers picked up water donations from the real estate firm’s Southern Nevada branch offices and delivered them to the Las Vegas Rescue Mission. Office Depot provided special pricing on water and made deliveries to the Mission.
The company’s Sahara office received this year’s distinction of donating the most bottles of any branch with 22,000 bottles donated. “It is an average donation of 81 bottles per real estate sales executive and really shows our executives and teams work together to benefit the community,” said Ray.
