Netter Real Estate’s Matthew Arnold was featured in the September/October 2009 issue of New York State Realtor magazine for his commitment to volunteerism. Matt is involved with the Hospice Care Network (HNC), a member of the North Shore Long Island Jewish Health System. He works with the HCN’s Children Bereavement Program, which offers individual and group counseling to children who have lost loved ones.

About 6 years ago Matt took his contributions to the HCN further and began his yearly birthday party fundraiser, hel at the 12,500 sq. ft. Awixa Castle in Bay Shore. The event is sponsored and the castle, food, auction prizes, and gifts are all donated. The event charges a $50 admission. The proceeds from the event are donated to the HCN and attendees leave with a great feeling knowing they made a difference.
