REALTOR Foundation - Linking Hope to Homeless: Why is Jeri Ballantine involved?
Why is Jeri Ballantine involved?
We asked some of our Foundation board members why they are involved...the answers will be shared through this blog and our other social media over the next few days. Jeri Ballantine is an agent with ERA Real Estate Links. Enjoy!
Jeri comments, "I'm involved for so many reasons you probably won't have room for them all!
Pride in Indianapolis: It is such a great place to live that I want to help more families enjoy it & have a safe, warm & well-maintained home to live in. Then they'll be able to take advantage of all Indianapolis has to offer.
Compassion: Many of those at the shelters or out on the streets have had unfortunate events thrust upon them through no fault of their own. They need help to stand on their own feet again.
Property Values: Helping improve neighborhoods has a ripple effect, and helps everyone's net worth increase.
Responsibility: I'm grateful for the blessed life I have been given, and feel an obligation to share those blessings.
It's the Right Thing To Do: "So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time if we do not give up. So, then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all." (Galatians 6:9)
