Earlier this year, we announced our new partnership with Giveback Homes to help create social change through the real estate community. As part of this effort, we recently hosted a  Sacramento Build Day with Giveback Homes and their build partner, Habitat for Humanity.

Forty of our employees volunteered to work across three job sites alongside Giveback Homes agents, Habitat for Humanity members and future home owners. We are incredibly proud of our volunteers who jumped right in and put their handyman skills to work. And we’re especially grateful to Giveback Homes for organizing an amazing day of giving back to our community.

Here’s what a few of our employees had to say about their experience.

“It felt wonderful to know that at the end of the day, a family would truly benefit from our hard work. It was indeed a labor of love and I was happy to be a part of it.” –Michele G.

“It was an experience to remember. I feel as if everyone in their lifetime should have the opportunity and/or take the time to volunteer. It makes you appreciate things more and want to take care of your home and the community around you. Everyone deserves a place to call home.” –Charro T.

“A great day in the sun, getting to know my new co-workers while making a difference in our community. This was a perfect idea. –Phil H.

“What I loved about the experience was the ability for us to come together as a team for a great cause. –Tameka P.

“I really enjoyed doing the work and team work to help to make a family in need dreams come true – can’t wait for next time.” –Jeffrey H.
