Next month marks the 21st birthday for Laing+Simmons Parramatta and the team is celebrating its coming of age by partnering with one of western Sydney’s most beloved and important charities.
From July 1 to the end of 2016, Laing+Simmons Parramatta will donate $300 to Westmead Medical Research Foundation (WMRF) for every property the team sells.
The Laing+Simmons Granville and Auburn offices are also joining the campaign.
The final figure to be donated could be in the vicinity of $40,000, explained Group Principal Ray Fayad, who couldn’t think of a better cause.
“We’ve been lucky to have called Parramatta home for the last 21 years and you can’t help but feel a strong connection to the area,” he said.
“The role that the inspiring team at Westmead play in so many different people’s lives is something everyone who lives in the local area should acknowledge and appreciate.
“This is our way of showing our appreciation for the tremendous work they do. While we’re turning 21, we want to share the celebration much more broadly.
“The people of western Sydney have been very good to us and we’re proud to give something back.”
Westmead Medical Research Foundation COO Belinda Szafraniec said the support of local companies like Laing+Simmons Parramatta was vital to the care of those in need.
“We are so grateful for businesses like Laing+Simmons Parramatta who give so generously to our organisation,” she said.
“This money will go towards critical care and life-saving research at Westmead and will help the thousands of patients who attend Westmead Hospital every day.”
Over the past 21 years, Mr Fayad and co-principal Caddie Dabaja have grown the team at Laing+Simmons Parramatta to 50 people and together they enjoy a strong market share in the burgeoning western Sydney property market.
Mr Fayad is also the principal of the Laing+Simmons Granville and Auburn offices and is one of the best known agents in Sydney’s geographic centre.
“Over the past two decades, we’ve seen many different agencies come and go as the property market cycle ebbs and flows. We’re proud to have been a fixture in the local area for so long and we look forward to calling ourselves locals for many more years to come,” Mr Fayad said.
