A portion of each commission is donated to a local non-profit that is making an impact within our community.
As an East Bay native and homeowner, this community is near and dear to my heart. I love supporting my clients when they need me the most and I want to be of more service to my community.
When you work with me as your Realtor to buy or sell real estate, upon closing I will donate funds on your behalf to one of the following charities of your choice:

Mercy Brown Bag Program
Every day in the Bay Area, thousands of seniors struggle to survive in desperate poverty. Most live alone. The skyrocketing cost of food and shelter means they often must choose between buying groceries or paying the rent. 500+ volunteers make sure other seniors can remain self-sufficient and independent in their own homes. Along with nutritious food, the Mercy Brown Bag Program provides a place for seniors to contribute to their community, stay physically active and socialize.
