C&A 2021 Youth Ministry Fundraiser Tour
Comer & Associates Real Estate is a family owned/operated Alaskan business that focuses on the lodging and hospitality industry. With the hope to share business and life experiences within our network, and increase our potential to achieve more, we want to invite you to partner with us in another journey.
We have learned and believe there is more to life than financial success. One truth we have learned is yes, we work hard and play hard, but playing hard needs to be qualified. Over the years we here at C&A have come to realize, if we take our "Playing hard" as serious as "Working hard" we can do extraordinary things. Things that build a legacy, vacations and travel with a purpose.
We, as a family have been given, or should I say taken, the opportunity to experience multiple extended stay vacations. One which lasted two months. You may ask how, unless you were financially blessed, could this happen? The answer, simply planning and some sacrifices. Interestingly enough the financial status you find yourself is not as important. As we all move past this Covid pause of our lives, lets take away the positives. Spending more time with family, spending more time at home, or even missing the freedoms we all took for granted. NOW is the time to set some new goals and aspirations. We want to be a positive conduit for this change. Join us in many ways, come along and be part of the experience (if not this trip than the following), support us financially, keep us in your thoughts and prayers, or let us help plan your own trip. Hence, comes what we are now calling, "Better Life Tours" or BLT for short.
In May we will be biking through five states. We plan physically pushing ourselves and making this trip lucrative, not only in terms of physical health, alleviating stress, emotional health, bonding thru actions, but also a benchmark for better lives in career, culture, family life & individual growth. Our goal is to align ourselves with businesses that will allow us to grow together. It is a perfect opportunity to do something fun with everyone, spread our name to new affiliates, and garner attention towards worthy causes which need assistance.
During our next BLT taking place May 2021, our plans center around our local church. At our family church which we have been attending for over 20 years, we can't help to see a need, especially in the youth sector. Our Goal is to raise 22 thousand dollars. We can't do it alone and need the support of our community to help the community. In order to raise awareness about the need for a youth program we decided to spread the word by combining said need with action. We plan on committing to our next BLT, a multi-state bike tour, to raising funds for our community church youth ministry.
We are asking to raise a total of 7 thousand dollars which will be used for trip expenses and then for another 15 for the youth program at our church. The multi state biking portion will need money for lodging, bikes, gear, equipment, airfare, food, etc. for four men so far. We are currently looking into sponsorships and accepting donations for our goal. If we are given anything above the goal, we will donate it to a non-profit company for youth that helps build up young people at a camp in Florida.
Comer & Associates has a desire to help. We are a small, locally owned commercial real estate brokerage that feels tasked with assisting our community. We operate our business based on faith in people, a fair market, honest actions, and most importantly Godly integrity. It is truly a blessing we have come this far, learning from individual experience, some good, some bad, while making us better people w/Better Lives. We hope to give back to our community when & where we can. Check out our website for more information. https://www.comerproperties.com/better-life-tours
The bike tour will begin in Virginia, and then follow highways with bike trails until we reach our destination of Carolina Beach, NC. We are combining our business aspirations for networking, the spiritual need for a youth program at our church, and important family time all in one. The idea is to make the most out of our time and help those without structure or support from a loving perspective. If you feel led, please donate to help out us, the church, and our community.
