On Thursday, July 13, Hunt Real Estate Corporation agents and employees participated in HUNT’s 1st Annual #WeLiveHere CommUNITY Day. The company teamed up with United Way chapters throughout Western and Upstate New York, as well as Phoenix, Arizona, to take part in local community service projects, ranging from painting, cleaning and landscaping to making meals and helping out at children's summer camps. While the inclement weather last Thursday caused a handful of events to be postponed until a later date, a total of 17 projects were able to be completed.
The following are a list of organizations we partnered with for our #WeLiveHere CommUNITY Day:
Valley Community Center
The Salvation Army of Buffalo
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York
Boys & Girls Club of Buffalo
Compass House
Every Person Influences Children
Gateway-Longview

“We see no better way to show that ‘#WeLiveHere’ than to offer support for our neighbors and give back to the communities in which we live and work,” said Peter Hunt, Chairman & CEO of HUNT Real Estate Corp. “It was wonderful to see our entire company so eager to participate, donating their personal time and energy.”
“To witness the excitement from our agents and staff to give back to their local communities was amazing, especially given the challenging weather conditions we experienced last Thursday,” said Dan Mirsky, Marketing Director for HUNT Real Estate Corp. “We had people battling torrential downpours and even flash flooding simply to spend a few hours helping out in their community,” Mirsky added. “We are already looking ahead to next year and making our #WeLiveHere CommUNITY Day an annual day of action for our company.”
