KEEFE KARES
CELEBRATION
Each year the Keefe Kares Foundation has held an annual celebration to help raise funds for local nonprofit organizations. The celebration is open to the public with entertainment, dinner and live & silent auctions.
The 7th Annual Keefe Kares Celebration, was held in-person and virtually on Friday, November 5, 2021 from 5:30 to 9:00pm in the Grand Ballroom at Geneva National Resort in Lake Geneva, WI.
This year’s event, “Home is Where the Heart Is,” included a silent and live auction and highlighted some of the individual nonprofits that will benefit from the funds raised. Entertainment was provided by renowned magician, Tristan Crist. The in-person tickets sold out with a record number of attendees this year; you can still watch the live stream from the night below.
Our spotlight organizations this year were the area homeless shelters and we were able to raise $60,000+ to benefit not only the shelters but 30+ other local nonprofits. We thank everyone for their support for this year's event and can't wait until next year!
GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY
Sometimes the sun shines and the road is clear, while at other times we get hit with an unexpected storm or flat tire. Whatever happens, in a community such as ours, someone is always there to lend a helping hand.
Over the past 25 years, Keefe Real Estate has been proud to play a role in supporting our local community. We focus this support through our Keefe Kares program, a 501(c)3 organization run and supported by Keefe associates.

SUPPORTING UNDER-SERVED MEMBERS OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY IS ONE OF OUR CORE MISSIONS.

Our primary goal is to help more directly in the places where we live and work, and in ways that reflect who we are as real estate professionals and residents alike.
