RAY WHITE RICHMOND SUPPORTS OUR OUTSTANDING YOUTH

Aside from various charitable trusts we donate too, such as the Ronald McDonald House, The Cancer Society, Hospice and the Epilepsy Foundation, at Ray White Richmond we acknowledge that there are some outstanding young athletes with so much potential trying to get to the next level in their sport.

The majority of these young people do not recieve financial assistance from their sporting codes, yet they show such commitment, passion and enthusiasm for their chosen fields, with the genuine potential to advance.

In order to ensure they reach their potential, we at Ray White Richmond are constantly on the look out to sponsor young athletes with the desire to succeed.

So far this year our office has sponsored several up and coming school age athletes.

Tom Nicolson has been selected to ride for the New Zealand Junior Road Cycling Team in Canada.

Laura Wehner has been selected to compete in Brisbane in a high level Tennis Tournament. At just 15yrs old Laura has won the Wellington Woman’s Club open category for two years running. Flying to Wellington on a weekly basis to compete.

Tom Filmer has been selected to represent New Zealand at the Junior World Mountain Biking Championships.

We have also sponsored Joel McMillan who is cycling for a team in France, and we continue to sponsor George Bennett.

George in now riding for Team Livestrong in the U.S.A and has recently competed in Europe with some very good results. Team Livestrong is a development squad of young riders to feed the Radio Shack Pro Team that is currently competing in the Tour De France.

It is inspiring to see that our community is fostering such great talent, athletes that are representing our country. Well done to you young athletes as well as to those parents who give support. It’s a satisfying feeling to be able to assist these young athletes in any way possible.

Good luck to you all… remember… ‘the harder you work – the luckier you get!’
