Patrick Stewart Properties Gives Back, Yet Again!

Patrick Stewart Properties Gives Back, Yet Again!

Patrick Jordan and Stewart Smith (Patrick Stewart Properties) of Windermere’s Palm Springs South office bring passion and dedication to each of their clients.  They apply that same passion and dedication to a number of very special causes, one of which is the Desert AIDS Project.

Tomorrow, October 22nd, Patrick Jordan and the Patrick Stewart Properties team will be walking for their fourth year in the Palm Springs DAP AIDS Walk.  The goal they set for themselves for this year’s event is $10,000, and based on the large number of supporters who have signed on to sponsor them, there’s a pretty good chance they will meet that goal.

“We appreciate your unwavering support in helping the men, women and children who rely on Desert AIDS Project services,” says Patrick. “With over 30 new DAP clients per month, the myth that AIDS is over is just not true.  AIDS is not over.”

This just in:  The Patrick Stewart Properties team has SURPASSED their $10,000 goal!  They’re at $10,500 and still rising!  They’re now the #1 fundraiser team for this year’s AIDS Walk, and they’re not even slowing down! Congratulations on your success, guys, and thanks for all you do.  Walk on!

Jim Hladysh Crosses The Finish Line!

Monday, October 10th, 2011

In case you’ve been following the progress of Jim Hladysh, one of several Windermere agents who worked long and

hard to train for the recent AIDS LifeCycle event, we just wanted to let you know that Jim finished the ride raising over $6,000 for the cause (that’s more than double what he raised the first year he rode in this event!!)

You may remember his challenge that if he received at least 10 on-line donations by his deadline, he’d shave his head…did he do it?  YEP.  Is he all rested and ready to go again?  You betcha. 

He looks very proud in that photo…and so do his mom and dad!    Congratulations, Jim!

Bob Thomas, riding to support people living with AIDS

Bob Thomas, riding to support people living with AIDS

Windermere’s Bob Thomas, from the Palm Springs Main office, is currently pedaling 545 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The AIDS LifeCycle 10th Anniversary ‘Ride to End AIDS’ is taking place from June 5-June 11…but the preparation for these participants has been going on for months and even years.

Bob’s been extending his riding exercises with fanatic dedication.  Over the weekend of May 21, he saw two tough rides totaling 140 miles, with plenty of hills and lots of wind. Throw high temps into the mix, and it’s a tough go for sure!

But Bob is up to it, and he’s surpassed his $10,000 fundraising goal, enough to provide critical medications for a person with AIDS for about six months!!

“In the early years of the epidemic I lost a lot of close friends – almost more than I can count,” says Bob.   “I am riding not only to pay tribute to those lost but also to those living today with HIV in the hope that their lives can be made just a little bit better because of the medical science and care that the ride helps support.”

If you’d like to support Bob with his ride, you can donate directly to AIDS LifeCycle by clicking here.
