Cora Bett Thomas Realty & Associates Helps Build New Habitat for Humanity Home in Downtown Savannah


SAVANNAH, Ga. – (Nov. 13, 2007) – Sales associates and employees at Cora Bett Thomas Realty & Associates proudly donned work gloves and wielded hammers to build a new Habitat for Humanity home for a local family in need on Nov. 9, 2007. Several REALTORS® and staff from this leading real estate company, which is an exclusive affiliate of Christie’s Great Estates, participated.


The home, which is located at 216 E. 33rd Street, serves as the second Habitat for Humanity home that Cora Bett Thomas Realty agents and staff have helped build in the region this year. In January, sales associates and employees at the company’s Bluffton, S.C. office participated in the 2007 Blitz Build for Habitat for Humanity, which was organized by the Hilton Head Area Association of REALTORS®.


“This home is located less than two miles from our Savannah office,” said Meg Albertson, vice president of marketing for Cora Bett Thomas Realty & Associates. “We truly believe in giving back to the communities where we do business and proudly support Habitat for Humanity’s mission of helping to provide quality housing for local residents in need.”
