Along came Hurriane Rita's disruption of lives, property and this weblog! Valiant and creative recovery efforts and stories will continue within the "Recovery" category. However, with Hurricane season fast approaching, the major focus turns to support of the Louisiana REALTORS goal of superior READINESS!

Another e-PRO at Work!

Posted at 6:14 PM, Sep. 1, 2005

Virginia Tatseos, a fellow e-PRO gave permission to place the following for REALTORS RESPONSE.

Friends,

The devastation in the Gulf Coast area and the continuing emergency in New Orleans have moved us all. Those of us with friends and family in the affected areas are particularly distraught, and that's nothing compared to victims of Hurricane Katrina themselves. Working together, we can make a difference and help victims through what's sure to be a long, extremely difficult time.


At a la mode, we are deferring all fees and payments of any kind due us under service contracts, annual subscriptions, website renewals or anything else for our thousands of clients in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama for as long as it takes. They don't need to do anything, we just won't ask for or expect payment till things are back to normal. That's the very least we can do.

But we're going beyond the least we can do, and we challenge you to help out, too. Our founder and Chairman, Dave Biggers, will personally match up to $250,000 in donations by our customers, made through our website at this

address: www.alamode.com/katrina. And if your response is really overwhelming, he'll go higher.

 

The link takes you to a secure area on our site where your donation will be routed to the American Red Cross, matched dollar for dollar by Dave. Visit right now and pass this e-mail or the link along to anyone you think didn't get it.

 

As a company, we've also matched the $150,000 REALTORSR Relief Fund donation to state REALTORR associations in Gulf Coast states. The Alabama REALTORR Disaster Relief Fund, Louisiana REALTORSR Association Relief Fund and Mississippi REALTORR Hurricane Relief Fund will split the donation three ways.

We've got more details about our efforts and our challenge to you in a press release we put out on the wires today. You can read it here.

Communities stick together when disaster strikes, and help one another out. Real estate professionals like you and us know that better than anybody. Please visit www.alamode.com/katrina today and donate generously. Thanks in advance for your donation,

All of us

a la mode, inc.
