Sponsor Spotlight | Lyon Real Estate - Placerville

Updated: Jan 29, 2023

Inspired by the support Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference provided to help the Caldor Fire victims over the last year, Lyon Real Estate's Placerville office recently awarded us with a $5000 grant (through the Lyon Cares Foundation of the Sacramento Region Community Foundation) which will allow Hands4Hope to continue our mission of inspiring and empowering youth in leadership and service.


We asked Monica Benedetti, Branch Manager at Lyon Real Estate Placerville, to share a few words with our community about the strong impression our youth left on the Lyon Real Estate representatives when they spoke about the impact Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference has had on their lives.


Read more about how meeting our youth with left them feeling hopeful about the future and sparked their desire to find more ways to support Hands4Hope in the future - including our upcoming Warm & Fuzzy Drive and Winter Boutique!

What is your impression so far of our youth and organization?


We had the pleasure of presenting our grant to Maya and Aiden (current youth leaders). Their poise and excitement in sharing about this organization that they are so clearly proud to be involved with filled our hearts with hope for the future adults and leaders that Hands4Hope is helping to shape. Thank you to both the youth members and adult leaders who give their time, talent and treasure to make Hands4Hope an amazing platform for service to our community.
