Together, we fuel the fire of hope, growth, & unity within Richland Chambers Lake 

Where it all began

Benefit RC—the Richland Chambers nonprofit dedicated to supporting the Richland Chambers Lake community—was founded by John and Julie Teel of RE/MAX Lakeside Dreams.

 

For the past 10 years, Benefit RC has raised funds to assist our local Volunteer Fire Departments, and the Fuel the Firefighters Poker Run alone has generated over $688,000 for our local VFDs.

 

Building on this tremendous community support and success, Benefit RC is launching The Blue Herons to further expand our outreach.
