Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Chicago, in conjuction with its philanthropic arm, the Kindness Foundation, celebrates Community Kindness in June. During Community Kindness, REALTORS® and staff from the firm' 24 offices select organizations to support with volunteer time and services in their respective communities. This year, the Glenview office, located at 2630 Valor Drive in The Glen, made 25 blankets for Project Linus, an organization whose mission is to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized or otherwise in need of handmade blankets and afghans.

Michael Mazzei, regional vice president and managing broker of the Glenview office, said "Project Linus is a truly special organization that we have partnered with on numerous occasions. They provide blankets to children in need, extending both symbolic and physical warmth and comfort. I thank Ellen Stern and Elaine Bykerk for leading this activity as well as everyone who donated materials or their time to help make this event such a success."
