Bellator Real Estate & Development REALTORS® donate $23,161 to local literacy nonprofit
Seventy-four students will have the opportunity to better their reading skills, learn English or earn their GEDs during this school year thanks to Bellator Real Estate & Development's partnership with the South Baldwin Literacy Council (SBLC).
