On Dan Williams and Thuy Pham's 5th Year Anniversary and after months of hard work, The Williams Community Foundation is now officially a 501(c)(3)!
And the best news...Jason Bressler, a well-respected leader in the Scottsdale business community, has been appointed Vice President of The Williams Community Foundation.
His leadership expertise with memberships, events, community giving and business initiatives are a coup to our unique philanthropic real estate model.
The Williams Community Foundation serves over 15 local Arizona charities for their 2010 annual giving program.
Under the direction of Founder, Dan Williams, President of The Williams Real Estate Company, the community foundation was a dream that formulated through Mr. Williams’ original real estate transactions.
“I started giving to local charities in my 20s through my real estate commission proceeds, and dreamed one day that I could engage other like-minded Realtors and create a business model with philanthropy as the basis."
"Real estate is our vehicle, and to date, we’ve donated over $350,000 to local Arizona charities,” states Dan Williams.
Multi-faceted Bressler will be in charge of The Williams Community Foundation’s programs serving the business-to-business community and a volunteer board, as well as assisting local businesses in developing their giving programs through The Williams Community Foundation.
“Jason is an amazing and skilled business networking specialist. His forte is listening to the needs of the business community and connecting leaders to deserving community initiatives. His distinct leadership will strengthen our commitment to our local community and its future leadership!” Barbara Bowers, President of The Williams Community Foundation.
As Vice President, Bressler will also create events benefiting local charities through the Foundation.
The Collection, a luxury division of The Williams Real Estate Company, has a signature “Celebration Home” fundraising open house, where local charities may host a fundraising event to showcase a luxury home.
When that home sells, The Williams Real Estate Company donates a large portion of the proceeds to that deserving charity.
