Giving Back During the Holidays and Beyond

I’ve always been committed to the well being of my clients, the New Orleans community, and the world beyond. And for as long as I’ve worked in real estate (almost 20 years!), I’ve given back a portion of every commission earned to charities and non-profits.

My favorite organizations are those that make a difference in peoples’ lives, support the arts, empower the LGBTQ+ community, aid the marginalized, care for rescued animals, and hold a special place in my heart – which is why I make charitable donations not just during the holiday season, but all year long.

If any of these spark your interest, please join me in supporting them this holiday season.

Non-Profits I Support

Following are the organizations I made donations to in 2022:
