Not a day goes by where I\u2019m unaware of just how lucky I am in life. Lucky to do the job that I do, helping clients \u2013 just like you \u2013 locate and land their perfect home, or sell a much loved home to move on to greater digs. Lucky to have the flexibility to live my active life at the same time. Lucky to have been born in beautiful Oregon, a state abundant with urban spirit and endless wilderness that will never run out of adventure.<\/p>\n
To help balance out my good fortune, I invest in my community.
\nAnd one small part of that involves you.<\/p>\n
Once your transaction has closed, $100 from my commission will go towards a local non-profit in your name.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n These are charities that I\u2019ve worked alongside for years, or whose mission resonates with me. And because your personal ethics may be a little different than mine, I\u2019ve selected a variety to choose from \u2013 so that your contribution can go towards something that\u2019s meaningful to you, as well. Here\u2019s my current list:<\/p>\n Taking Ownership PDX<\/a>: Taking Ownership PDX is a small-but-mighty collective of volunteer contractors, realtors, neighbors, and businesses brought together by Portland musician and activist, Randal Wyatt. This one\u2019s extra personal, as it\u2019s important to me to mitigate some of the historical damage done to our local communities of color through redlining, gentrification, and systemic racism. Together, we\u2019re using our skills to help Black homeowners renovate and revive their homes, to preserve Black communities, and allow Black homeowners to age in place.<\/p>\n Michelle\u2019s Love<\/a>: Michelle Singleton, a single mother of four, passed away from cancer in 2005. Michelle\u2019s Love was founded as a way to provide financial assistance to other moms battling cancer alone. So many of my clients happen to be single women, and I\u2019m always awestruck by what they can accomplish with a little extra support.\u00a0So far we\u2019ve contributed: $1,300!<\/strong><\/p>\n One Tail At a Time PDX<\/a>: Yep, I\u2019m a dog person. Through this organization, you can foster, adopt, or just give financial high fives to some really great dog-lovin\u2019 folk. Your contribution helps them match sweet rescue doggos with their furever home.\u00a0So far we\u2019ve contributed: $1,500!<\/strong><\/p>\n
