The Good Neighbor Award is an annual award given to a member of the local Topsail Realtor community who has went beyond normal expectations to help the local community. The Topsail Island Association of Realtors asks for nominations and from those nominations the Good Neighbor Committee chooses the winner each year.
Beth founded and has organized the "Go Red TI" gala along with Corporate Sponsor Lewis Realty Associates, Inc to raise money and awareness for heart disease. This past year the gala featured dancing, great eats and even Nashville Recording artists, the Dreyers.
The funds raised from this two year annual event has been donated to the local Pender County EMS. The Pender County EMS used these funds to purchase several "Lucas" unit. A "Lucas" unit is an automatic CPR machine which is 98% effective in keeping the circulation system functioning in a heart patient until the person can be stabilized at the hospital. It has been reported that at least 7 lives have been saved in the past two years with the "Lucas" machine purchased from the Go Red Gala contributions!
In connection with receiving the award the Topsail Island Association of Realtors donated $500 to the Pender EMS. Beth & Lewis Realty will be matching that donation as well. Lewis Realty Associates, Inc. President Chris Rackley said, "Beth is not only a valuable member to our team but a valuable member to our community.
