Clearly, life is better at the beach. Last week, the #1 luxury real estate brokerage in Mexico, Engel & Völkers Snell Real Estate, along with Ocean Blue World, threw the BEACH PARTY of the year and the best thing about it — it was all for a GOOD CAUSE. Now in its second edition, the annual fundraising event that partners with the Engel & Völkers Americas network, is dedicated to supporting the Special Olympics, the world’s largest sports organization for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Paving the way forward, this was the beach party that savored the magic of summer all in the spirit of giving.
Amid toes-in-the-sand physical activities and sports, a delicious sunset BBQ with margaritas and an exciting salsa dance class, the social gathering that invited clients and friends harnessed messages of inspiration, generosity and giving back. A record-breaking $27,185 USD was raised for Special Olympics by the Los Cabos shop, led by advisor Justin Biel who achieved the top place for individual fundraiser in the Engel & Völkers Americas network.
“I was overwhelmed by the support of the Los Cabos community and our brokerage in this year’s fundraising effort. We worked as a team and showed up in a big way for Special Olympics,” said Biel.
Collectively, through multiple advisors’ individual fundraising efforts in the Americas, this unique campaign raised $102,399.99 USD. These are phenomenal efforts that directly impact the Special Olympics´ mission to make a difference and get one more athlete onto the playing field. Because of this tremendous support, the Special Olympics are able to grow their number of athletes from 5 million to many, many more, giving everyone a chance to experience the true power of sport. Engel & Völkers Snell Real Estate and Justin Biel would like to thank all those who participated, donated, and supported this fundraiser.
