ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Heather Skender-Newton
Owner/Broker of Skender-Newton Realty
and Founder of SNR Cares
SNR Cares is a non-profit organization founded by Heather Skender-Newton because a profound social responsibility drives her work. Heather views real estate as a vehicle for spreading positive change throughout her community- it's much more than a job to her. Her vision has always been to create a real estate firm that helps people, and not just sell them a house. She created the nonprofit SNR Cares to help people beyond just real estate.
