Fantastic Mr. Fox Movie Sponsorship by Fog City Family Films!

We had a great time handing out hot chocolate, coffee, and herbal tea (courtesy of local coffee shop Cumaica Coffee) for the Fog City Family Films Outdoor Family Movie Night at Rossi Playground on Saturday June 20th in the Inner Richmond! We handed out blankets and mingled with the community who came out, despite the cold, to enjoy the movie "Fantastic Mr. Fox"!

We loved the atmosphere of the outdoor drive-in movie feel, as well as bonding with the community and supporting the local San Francisco Elementary School. 

Our co-sponsors William Tran, Alain Karet, and Manny Tran proudly hosted a free raffle, while Support Team members Karina Barrero & Sarah Smith,  helped hand out blankets and drinks.

Drumroll please...it's with great pleasure that we'd like to announce the winner of the $100 Amazon Gift Card raffle: Congratulations Heidi Franczyk, who sent in this photo!

A very special thank you to the Richmond District YMCA and Clement Street Merchants Association, who made us feel extremely welcome and threw such an awesome event! We sincerely enjoy every minute of being able to give back to our community and we are so excited for possible future partnerships!

George Peabody Silent Auction!

Wow, what a whirlwind of a weekend! Sequoia Real Estate attended a plethora of Springtime Events! Among the highlights was George Peabody Elementary School's in the Inner Richmond, just a hop and a skip away to the Sequoia Real Estate Headquarters.

What better way to spend a lovely Saturday night than among the Richmond community, close friends, and loving parents supporting George Peabody! Our very own agents Laura Caballero, Thao Vo, William Tran, and Kelvin Kam were all present at the event, representing Sequoia Real Estate as a proud sponsor on Saturday, 4/25. 

We served delicious zinfandel and chocolate shots in addition to a free raffle of a $100 Amazon Gift Card by having participants take their best shot at guessing the number of corks in a glass vase. We are pleased to announce that the winner of the $100 prize is an ecstatic George Peabody parent, Kendra Miles! 

Our winner, Kendra Miles, guessed the exact number of corks! 

We wanted to thank everyone who came and participated in our free raffle, and hope you also enjoyed the shots as much as we did!  We would also like to thank George Peabody Elementary for having us there.  Stay tuned for Sequoia’s next sponsored event!
