It’s back…Kyle Olson is attempting to set a new record….63 Hour Long Open House.
Exemplifying the core values of the largest real estate franchise in the world, Kyle Olson of Keller Williams Inspire Realty is hosting the LONGEST OPEN HOUSE in connection with the Alzheimer’s Association of Minnesota and North Dakota’s Longest Day fundraising campaign. Together with Brookstone Properties (Fargo, ND), they will be holding a beautiful 4 Bedroom rambler (6012 78th Ave S Horace ND) open for 63 hours straight! We will have snacks, games, food trucks, amazing Door Prize GIVEAWAYS, and much more. *
Kyle Olson is a lifelong resident of Fargo-Moorhead and Realtor at Keller Williams Inspire Realty. After losing his Father (Dewey Olson, Moorhead, MN) to Alzheimer’s in 2019, he has dedicated himself to raising $100,000 to help end Alzheimer’s. “One of the hardest parts for me was watching my father no longer recognize his HOME. He knew the number but the house physical home was no longer there” Kyle states. Kyle donates a significant portion of every home sale towards Alzheimer’s research in order to reach that goal and has donated over $20,000 already as well as inspiring many more donations.
Why the longest Open House?
My father suffered from some of the longest days I could ever imagine. Sometimes it felt like his day would restart every 6 minutes and the amount of energy my mother had to expend caring for him made some days heartbreaking. Fortunately, the Longest Day is the day of the year with the most light — the summer solstice. And it’s the day I have committed to fighting Alzheimer’s disease! I’m participating in The Longest Day, a fundraising event to advance the care, support, and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. Today, an estimated 50 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, including more than 5 million Americans. In the United States alone, 16 million friends and family members are providing their care. We must take action now, or these numbers will continue to rise.
Stand up to the darkness of Alzheimer’s and make a donation today to help the Alzheimer’s Association support all those facing the disease. Thank you!
*For security reasons, the home will be locked from 9:00 pm until 8:00 am just knock for admission.
Let’s set a record for a good cause for those that suffer from Dementia and face the longest day, every day!

I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours. It¦s pretty value enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content material as you probably did, the net will probably be a lot more useful than ever before.
