SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BLACK-OWNED BUSINESSES!

Black Business Month

August is National Black Business Month, a time to celebrate Black entrepreneurs thriving despite the unique challenges they face. 

Please make a point to visit, engage with, and uplift these and other Black-owned businesses now, and all year long. Their presence and success help make our cities great places to live!


A few highlights that are important to us:

MOVING OUT OF HOMELESSNESS

We need your help!

Working in real estate, we are all too aware of how the sky-high cost of housing impacts people living near or below the poverty line.


That's why we're very proud to support the Community Housing Assistance Fund (CHAF), which provides urgently needed

 rental startup costs including first and last month’s rent, security deposits, and rental fees.


It takes an average of $1000 to move someone out of homelessness. 

CHAF has served over 2500 families since its inception. Think about that: 2500 families in stable housing, and YOU could make a direct difference for one or more of those families!


We are aiming to raise $100,000 by the end of August, and we're 80% there. We've gotten donations from $10 to $10,000. 

Please consider donating here—every dollar makes a real difference.
