By LISA TALLYN Staff Writer Royal LePage Meadowtowne Realty has a solution for all the pennies you have piling up in that jar at home. The realty office is running a Penny Drive for Shelter with 50 per cent of the money raised going to Halton Women's Place and the other 50 per cent going toward funding to add new curriculum called "Respecting Relationships" at area high schools. "Everyone's got a jar of pennies they keep stubbing their toe on," said Catherine Fox, broker manager of Royal LePage Meadowtowne in Georgetown. The pennies are being collected in a five-gallon wine jug in the Royal LePage office at 324 Guelph St. Fox said the Respecting Relationships curriculum for the high schools teaches the students about the importance of respect in all relationships. Royal LePage's Shelter Foundation is Canada's largest public foundation dedicated exclusively to funding women's shelters and violence prevention and education programs. The company and its real estate agents are working to create safer homes and safer communities by contributing more than $10 million since 1999 to help women and children across Canada. Through donating a portion of their commission on the purchase or sale of properties the agents are helping bring hope and provide shelter for those who need it most.
