Take a Moment To Savor the Little Things

Happy Holiday Season from your friends at Hirschfeld

Take a Moment To Savor the Little Things

During this time of year, many of us could use a gentle reminder… take a moment for all of the joys of the season.  Put aside a few moments for you and your favorite hot beverage of choice (hot chocolate with extra marshmallows anyone???) Sit down, put your feet up and relax.  If this post helped you to smile, or take an extra moment for yourself, feel free to share it with others.  

Happy Holiday Season to each of you!

Breast_cancer_awareness_month_2014Lee National Denim Day Sparks Collections in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month

In honor of breast cancer awareness, our teams at Eagles Walk, Ridge View, Steeplechase, & Tall Oaks are collecting donations. The donation collections started on Lee National Denim Day here at Hirschfeld; where our staff was able to donate $5 in exchange for wearing jeans to work on October 3, 2014.  Since breast cancer is something that affects so many of us we couldn’t think of a better way to spend our resident appreciation event this month than to give to such a great cause.  If you would like to join us and make your own donation please stop by the leasing office as we will be accepting donations at our apartments homes in White Marsh (Eagles Walk & Ridge View,) Cockeysville (Steeplechase,) and Laurel, MD (Tall Oaks.)  Thank you to all of those who have already donated, and thank you in advance to those of you who will be donating!  Remember, all donations must be received by close of business on October 31, 2014.
