Each year, the Active 20-30 Club of Scottsdale hosts a charity sporting competition called Brokers for Kids. After 16 years of being solely a commercial real estate event, residential real estate agents will join in the fun. More than 50 teams will go head to head in two competitions, Brokers for Kids and Agents Benefiting Children February 7, 2014 at Tempe Beach Park.Brokers for Kids 2013 Photo

The teams will participate in the Olympiad Championship which includes a quarterback challenge, volleyball, basketball, baggo, and bocce games. The top fundraising teams from both sides will also be recognized at this action packed day all for a great cause.

Throughout the year, these real estate teams and industry workers have been raising money through various fundraising efforts for two charities, Boys Hope Girls Hope and the Care FundBoys Hope Girls Hope is a non-profit that provides scholarships to underprivileged kids in both community-based and residency-based programs, ensuring a good start toward a college education. The Care Fund provides mortgage, rent and housing expense relief, as well as related lifestyle resources during a child’s extended health crisis.

“Both charities are truly amazing. While each organization helps individuals in different ways, both benefit children,” said event chairman Mike Coy. “This event is a prime example of what the Scottsdale Active 20-30 Club stands for; educating our citizens about the financial, medical, and emotional needs of Arizona’s children.

“Every dollar counts and without the tremendous support of the commercial and residential real estate communities, this event would not be possible,” said Coy.
