RE/MAX Sky & Hub affiliates joined together in the "Save the
Earth" challenge. The combined efforts of the offices included
agents planting trees, picking up trash and donating blood.

"Throughout Global RE/MAX Week, our team of agents truly
embodied the spirit of giving back, contributing their time, energy
and resources to help those in need across Northern Virginia," said Jennifer Morin, Director of Operations with
