Real Estate Sales Representative offers amazing support for Buy a Bed campaign

Eileen Amirian is a strong supporter of her community, but she doesn’t often look to her TV to stay in touch with what’s going on locally. So it is ironic that it was a morning news program that led her to become the newest partner of the Buy a Bed campaign at Rouge Valley Centenary hospital.

“It was the morning that City TV’s Breakfast Television was at the hospital for the bed-a-thon,” she explains. “I don’t usually watch TV, but that morning I was compelled to see what’s happening in the world.”

As a result, she learned all about Rouge Valley Health System Foundation’s efforts to raise funds to purchase 100 new beds for Centenary. As a Sales Representative for HomeLife Bayview Realty Inc., Brokerage and actively involved in the community, Ms. Amirian felt she had something to offer the campaign, so she contacted Katherine Craine, Director, Major Gifts & Special Campaigns for RVHSF.

After discussing the possibilities, guided by her strong giving principles, Ms. Amirian offered to donate 10 per cent of her commission to the Buy a bed campaign.

“Helping people become homeowners and helping them to sell their home is the best job in the whole world, giving back to the community is the best feeling in the whole world,” Ms. Amirian says. “I’m really excited to be able to support the campaign this way and to help bring comfort to Rouge Valley Centenary patients, one bed at a time.”

For the Buy a Bed campaign, Ms. Craine says this is an exciting and unique opportunity.

“It’s a grass roots campaign, so this is a really good tie-in,” she says. “And I’m so excited that Eileen has committed to supporting us through to the end of the campaign next spring.”

Ms. Amirian says this offer makes sense for her because her clients often express their interest in supporting the community when considering where they want to live.

“There’s so many people out there with a good heart, who want to help a good cause when they can,” she says. “And buying a house is a good time to reach these people and inspire them with a way to support their community hospital.”

Aside from her passion to contribute as a member of the community, Ms. Amirian also has a personal reason why she supports Centenary. Her sister once needed the community hospital and she was pleased with the care she received.
