Waltham-based Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in New England, along with Walsh Brothers Inc., recently donated $5,625 as part of the "6 for 60" program in support of The Home for Little Wanderers’ Big Wishes Gift Drive.

As part of the program, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage and Walsh Brothers donated a gift card in support of the annual gift drive for every touchdown that the Boston College Eagles scored during the 2012 football season.

"Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage is honored to continue our support of The Home for Little Wanderers, especially during this special time of year. As a company committed to the communities we serve, there is nothing more rewarding than knowing that we helped to bring holiday cheer to the children and families served by The Home," Pat Villani, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in New England, said in a statement. "We hope this donation will make the holiday season brighter for teenagers who can use the gift cards to shop for clothing, music and other items on their holiday wish lists."
