CREATING AN IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY STARTS WITH YOU
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
- Helen Keller.
Vine Maple Place is such an important charity to us because before Diana and Cory met, Diana was a single mom of two for nearly 10 years.
She knows the firsthand challenges and difficulties living in a single-parent household, let alone doing it while facing homelessness which is why this organization is near and dear to our hearts.
At the beginning of 2021, we felt a massive tug in our hearts to do more. In March 2021, we partnered with the Vine Maple Place and launched the 30 nights of safety campaign. This partnership means that we donate 30 nights of safety—30 nights of shelter, care, and warm meals—for every home sold.
We’re dedicated to doing more than just finding you your dream home or selling your past one. We take it a step further and give back to the community we call home.
For every home sold, we donate to causes that directly benefit those in need around us.
As a family and a real estate team, we love being heavily involved in our local community, whether it’s volunteering countless hours packing boxes, gleaning fresh produce at our local food bank, coordinating food drives, or dropping off canned goods as a family.
We thrive when we’re able to serve and give, and when you work with us, you’re able to help us do more.
Together, here’s how we are making a difference.

VMP: Vine Maple Place is a Christian organization that breaks the generational cycle of homelessness by working with single parents and their children. Their approach offers safety, provides stability, and equips to self-sufficiency.
The Stable Families (SF) model is a proven, integrated approach that offers moms and kids facing homelessness the resources and tools needed to become safe and stable, leaving homelessness behind forever. Families are being successful. 91% are successfully housed one year later.

For more than a decade, the Storehouse has devoted its energy to providing food to families in crisis. It's our prayer and hopes that this food would not only nourish the physical body but also provide encouragement during challenging times. We work together to continue the mercy ministry of Jesus; feeding the hungry and providing comfort to the poor. We take a non-threatening approach: a simple prayer or blessing is offered along with an ear to listen. The heart of our mission is to love our neighbors by responding to their requests for food, prayer, and referral to other services that are needed, with dignity and respect. Our motto is to "love until they ask why."

EVERY TIME A HOME IS SOLD For the past 30 years a portion of every Windermere agent’s commission has been donated to the Windermere Foundation. Having 100% participation gives us a common purpose and sends a powerful message about our commitment to the community.
Last year alone we provided funding to hundreds of organizations throughout the Western U.S., including homeless shelters, food banks, schools, hospitals, community centers, and more.
