EXIT MidSouth Pledges to Donate $5 to the AMERICAN RED CROSS for each home sale in the region under the EXIT Brand
EXIT MidSouth operates a regional sub-franchise for EXIT Realty Corp. International in Tennessee and Kentucky for the past 6 years and the regional office is located in Franklin, TN. A week ago this region suffered massive flooding due to two consecutive days of rainfall that exceeded record rainfalls for the entire month of May. As corporate citizens of Tennessee and Kentucky, EXIT MidSouth has pledged to donate $5 to the American Red Cross for each home bought or sold under the EXIT brand within our region during the month of May2010 retro-active to May 1st when the rains began. Exit MidSouth has toured and lent a
hand in several of the heavily devastated areas and talked to home owners as they began the road to recovery and rebuilding. This has impacted so many lives and the American Red Cross responded quickly with Food/Water/Shelter to those in this time of need. Exit MidSouth has thrived in the recent economy growing sales units by 49% from 2008 to 2009 and a similar trend is already revealing itself for 2010 and thus wants to provide assistance to the families and friends that have lost so much, so swiftly in this flood. That is why we have pledged to donate $5 from each real estate sale or purchase under the EXIT Brand in our region, but we want to challenge our franchisees and our agents involved in those transactions to both match our pledge for a possible total of $15 per sale transaction. As we know the scope and long lasting effects that this will have on the region we know that our contribution is only a tiny morsel in the grand scheme of this road to recovery, however, we know that a small ripple in a large pond can still generate great things. That is why we also extend our challenge to other real estate companies and agents to match our pledge to support the recovery and rebuilding of communities involved with this record setting flood. We will kick-off the donations at training events already scheduled for this week with a collection box for checks and cash to the American Red Cross. The training will be conducted by Jeff Lobb and the events will be held in Lousiville, Knoxville, Franklin, and Clarksville over the next four days as part of EXIT Realty’s Mind-Set Training Program.
The corporate charity has always been Habitat for Humanity, and each year EXIT Realty Corp. International provides direct assistance to Habitat for Humanity to assist in the construction of homes and furthering of their cause around the world. From each real estate transaction, money is set aside specifically for this entity and at the annual EXIT convention the Founder and CEO, Steve Morris presents a check on behalf of all EXIT associates to Habitat for Humanity. The charity doesn’t stop with financial contributions as EXIT Realty organizes volunteer Build Blitzes throughout the year where EXIT agents, Brokers, and staff can take part in the construction of a home for a family in need.
Executives at EXIT MidSouth toured the American Red Cross command center today and were impressed with the organization of such a large reaching relief effort and were astounded at the grand scale at which they provide Food, Water, and Shelter. This is in deed an organization that we want to associate with and assist them in the replenishing of the items that they provided to the people in need after the rains came to Tennessee and Kentucky.
