Raleigh, N.C., December 12, 2007—Bedford at Falls River today announced its participation in the 2007 Christmas Tour of Homes. This charity event, sponsored by Coldwell Banker Howard Perry & Walston, benefits the Me Fine Foundation, Inc., a Raleigh-based organization that provides financial and emotional assistance to families with children staying at Duke Children’s Hospital and the North Carolina Children’s Hospital at UNC.
Scheduled for December 15 from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., participants can make a $10 donation, allowing them to tour five designated homes in Bedford at Falls River. The homes are a part of the Estates section, built by Bedford Builder Group, and the Hayes Barton Collection, built by Preservation Homes.
“The success of the event is based on how much the community embraces it,” said Meredith Morgan, HPW Foundation president and senior marketing manager with Coldwell Banker Howard Perry & Walston. “Bedford at Falls River has the sense of community that we knew would welcome an event like this and truly take it to a new level.”
Tickets for the event may be purchased at Bedford at Falls River’s Welcome Center, 4390 Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh. This is the second year of the Me Fine Holiday Homes Tour and the first year of Bedford’s participation in the event.

About the Me Fine Foundation, Inc.
The Me Fine Foundation, Inc., is a non-profit organization that provides assistance for children and families at the Duke Children’s Hospital and the North Carolina’ Children’s Hospital at UNC. The foundation was founded by friends and family of Folden Lee, IV, who was diagnosed with AML Leukemia in May 2003. During his 15-month battle with this disease, Folden’s family found that along with the tremendous tress of caring for a child with a life-threatening illness, most families struggle with overwhelming medical costs as well as personal outpatient housing and living expenses while their child is undergoing treatment. The Me Fine Foundation, Inc. is dedicated to relieving these families of this added stress as they face these life-changing challenges.
