When Community Comes Together: White Plains Steps Up for Local Families
In real estate, we often talk about building communities. But what does that really mean? For Jess Watts and the team at White Plains Rand Realty, it means showing up when it matters most.
A Growing Crisis in Our Backyard
Huge thank you to my office of White Plains Rand Realty
for stepping up big for 914Cares.
When food insecurity is up, things like diapers, wipes and onesies become an unattainable option. 1 in 4 Westchester families live in poverty and nearly 4 in 10 school-aged children are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
We believe we can and must do better for every individual. Every child. Every family. For the well-being of all our neighbors and our entire community.
Here in Westchester, 33% of babies in are born into families on Medicaid (Community County Health Assessment), and 2,100 children have experienced homelessness right here in county (NYS Dept of Education).

I hope everyone has managed all this rain. While rain can be all doom and gloom, it is a great time to look for course corrections. In certain locations, our soil is very dense, and clay like which can lead to a low percolation rate.
A great way to do this? Yoga in the Garden is back for year four! 🌿
