The city presented a proclamation to members of the Long Island Real Estate Group's (LIREG) New Generation group for their efforts in assisting the Martin Luther King Jr. Center, a social services agency, recover from the effects of Superstorm Sandy.
The proclamation, presented at a March 19th city council meeting by city council president Scott Mandel, recognized the New Gen members for the donations they made to the center. The group purchased supplies and household items and delivered them to the center despite the difficulty of getting around Long Island during the first few days after Superstorm Sandy.
Formed in 2008, LIREG's New Gen group aims to attract 35 and under real estate and related industry professionals as members of LIREG and to foster a charitable giving and networking environment. It provides the opportunity for members to interact with their peers through active participation in specific charitable projects and social events, as well as to integrate with leaders in the industry as part of the greater LIREG organization.
