Mascot Miracles Foundation (MMF) is the second of three charities that goBE Realty is teaming up with during our 20th Anniversary Celebration.  Founded in 2013, MMF believes in providing lasting memories for young children fighting terminal illnesses by having professional, college, and corporate mascots create and attend events and parties for these children.  MMF needs donations,sponsors, and volunteers to continue providing smiles, laughter and fun for these children, which is why goBE is joining the cause.  At each of goBE's closings, our clients will be asked to choose amongst three charities that they would like to see us donate to.  Upon our 100th closing, goBE will tally those results and donate $5000 to the #1 charity, $3000 to the #2 charity,

The video that started it all...

Back when UtahDave still had most of his hair, and Daybreak was quite a bit smaller—Dave starred in his famous Daybreak "infomercial." It's our best guess whether he was reading off of a teleprompter or his passionate words come straight from the heart...

 

And where we ended up!

We decided when it was time to do a new Daybreak commercial, why not strike UtahDave from it and put in his cute kids instead! The end result was much more entertaining we think. How about you?

 

So what's the big deal about Daybreak?

Well, it is a big deal. There's always so much fun going on!

To celebrate Utah Dave's 20th Anniversary in the real estate business, goBE is donating a total of $10,000 amongst three charities. Project Sleep Tight (PST) is a charity that goBE teamed up with over the 2018 holiday season, resulting in 60 children receiving totes filled with a book, blanket, stuffed animal, and toothbrush, plus additional items for future totes. We used our social media platform to get the word out about PST and thanks to our clients, friends, employees, and families, we provided 60 kids with a reason to smile and feel loved.  Homelessness is a nationwide epidemic, and while it's not feasible to provide every homeless child with a PST tote, we believe we can do better than fill 60 totes, which is why goBE has selected Project Sleep

Every year since 1994, Robert Charles Lesser & Co (RCLCO) conducts a national survey to identify the top selling Master Planned Communities (MPCs).  Daybreak ranked number 12 out of 50 with a 23% increase in homes sales from 2017 to 2018. To qualify for ranking, MPCs must be developed by a master developer and must incorporate a variety of housing types, sizes, and price ranges.  They must include shared common space, provide amenities, and vital public realm, such as parks, plazas, pedestrian paths, street cafes, community gardens, and community centers. The best MPCs have distinctive signage, landscaping, and architecture/design standards that unify the community.  Kudos to Daybreak!
