TOLEDO -Â With a combination of several small fundraisers and its annual dinner auction, the Danberry Co. was able to donate $38,000 this year to the Danberry Treasure Chest, an emergency assistance fund administered by the Toledo Children's Hospital Foundation.
The fund annually assists dozens of families throughout Northwest Ohio and southeastern Michigan who are challenged by a child's chronic illness as well as financial needs. In 2012 approximately 70 families received over $60,000 in assistance.
"It's incredibly heart-warming to witness the generosity and caring spirit of so many people in the real estate community during a challenging economy. The need for the kind of assistance that the Danberry Treasure Chests provides has never been greater," said Dick Baker, Danberry president.

The number 13 doesn't always have to be unlucky. Take these top 10 decor trends for 2013 from design experts, manufacturers and trend forecasters across the country.
A splash of color
Pantone's annual fashion color report sets the tone for home decor. Its softer-hued palette of Dusk Blue, Lemon Zest, African Violet, Grayed Jade, Linen and Tender Shoots is emboldened by Monaco Blue, Poppy Red, Emerald and Nectarine. Founder Marc Thee also sees a move toward pure color palettes such as cream and sea glass, khaki and white, or neutral with a pop of yellow.
Movin' wallpaper
Repositionable wallpaper is a new decorating mainstay, says Todd Imholte, president of Murals Your Way. The company's 10 collections of peel-and-stick wallpaper are available in such themes as Vintage, Dots, Flower Prints and Mostly Modern, and can be removed and reused without losing their adhering qualities. Customers can match their repositionable wallpaper to an existing paint color, updated decor or the Pantone color palette.

Between all of the cooking, baking and entertaining, decorating the dining room table for holiday guests tends to get thrown on the backburner.
But as first impressions can be last impressions, presentation is vital - and can actually be an art form.
As designing the perfect tablescape can seem a bit overwhelming, online magazine Lonny has developed a few simple ways to work with the materials and space you already have to create a show-stopping dinner table this holiday season that will leave a lasting impression.

For the past five years, members of the Wood County Board of Realtors have collected Kaps for Kids in the month of November.
This year's drive netted over 120 hats between all of the offices in Wood County.
In October the Realtors collected "pocket change" at all local offices, raising $300.
The donations were used to purchase a shade tree at the Wood County Fairgrounds in memory of Keith Bradley, Realtor/auctioneer, who died earlier this year.
Next month, the Realtors will have a food drive to benefit the Bowling Green Christian Food Pantry.
Anyone wanting to donate should drop off canned goods off at any local real estate office.
