Keller Williams Premier Properties Annual Short Hills House Tour is a success!

The other day was the second annual Keller Williams Premier Properties Annual Short Hills House Tour, and once again it was a huge success.  A goal was set to raise enough money to acquire 50 Autism NJ Classroom Resource Kits, and thanks to so many generous contributors and participants of the tour we REACHED THAT GOAL!  "I'm thrilled, and so happy to help get these great resources for the teachers that work so hard for our children,"said Melanie Rosenbaum, tour organizer and sales associate with Keller Williams Premier Properties of Essex, Union, and Morris Counties.

Thanks to the efforts of the tour there will be an opportunity for extra character education provided to our children via the Autism NJ classroom kits.  Tour goers were thrilled as well to have a nice day in town and had the wonderful chance to see the Short Hills Real Estate Market.  The Keller Williams Realty Sales Associates were able to give back to the community they serve, along with meeting so many great people.  The event seemed to be a win, win for all involved!  The following is what some had to say to the tour organizer, Melanie Rosenbaum.
Hartshorn School 2nd Grade Teacher, Kathleen Small
"I sincerely thank you for bringing the kits to Millburn.  I loved using it with my class and being part of this important movement to spread awareness.  Your dedication is truly inspirational"!

"A big thank you to Melanie for the vision and good will to allow KW to make a difference in our community. The tour will enable 50 local classrooms to have a greater understanding & empathy for their peers with Autism.  Also thanks to sellers who were eager to make a difference and expose their homes at the same time.  It was a win-win-win. It warmed my heart and made me proud to generate such good will"!

Annual House Tour to Benefit Autism Awareness, May 3, 2014

In just a couple of days, Keller Williams Premier Properties of Essex, Union, and Morris Counties will be opening the doors to many top properties in town for you to tour.  It is a great opportunity to be able to walk through some of the most beautiful mansions and homes in the area, at your own pace.



This Saturday, May 3rd from 12-3pm you can tour 6 beautiful examples of prime Short Hills, NJ Real Estate ranging in price from $1.5M-$4M.

The Annual House Tour to Benefit Autism Awareness is on its second year and going strong. Last year, with the generous contribution and participation from town members and local friends, we contributed money to help create 300 Autism New Jersey's Classroom Resource Kits which went into New Jersey public schools. This year, we are beyond happy that 100% of ALL house tour ticket purchases and donations will go DIRECTLY to the Millburn Public School System. That means, all the money fundraised will go into local classrooms for our children!  Each tour ticket pays for half of one kit!

Autism New Jersey has paced the way for building acceptance and autism awareness.  They are tops in providing tools and resources in NJ classrooms to help foster understanding. There is no known cure for Autism, and with 1 in 45 children in New Jersey being diagnosed, it is extremely important to integrate early intervention and provide resources for our community to support acceptance of others.  


Here is a picture of what exactly comes inside of every kit:


Help directly make a difference in our local community!

To purchase tickets or to make a donation please visit Eventbrite.

We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you on Saturday!
