MADISON, N.J., Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Coldwell Banker
Real Estate LLC, a Realogy (NYSE: RLGY) brand, has been
selected to receive the 2021 St. Jude New Partner Campaign of the
Year Award, for its efforts to help cure childhood cancer. In its
first year, the CB Supports St. Jude partnership aimed
to raise $250,000, a goal it met
within the first six months. By October, the Coldwell Banker
network doubled its initial goal, fundraising a total of more than
$500,000.
The brand also announced today at the Gen Blue
Experience® that it will be continuing the CB
Supports St. Jude partnership through 2022, so Coldwell
Banker affiliated agents can continue choosing to make a donation

lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital®: Finding cures. Saving
children.®
Coldwell Banker affiliated agents know the meaning of home – as
the oldest and most established residential real estate brand in
North America, they have been
guiding people home for 115 years. St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital treats more than 8,600 kids a year from across
the United States and around the
globe and provides patient families with a home-away-from-home
while they receive treatment.
Thanks to funds generated through partnerships like this one,
families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel,
housing, or food – because all a family should worry about is
helping their child live.

DiGregorio with Coldwell Banker Realty in Waltham, MA, received the Coldwell Banker
Stars of Hope designation, awarded to DiGregorio as the number one
donor as well as to 107 of the top 15% of participating U.S. agents
