brandon and riverview volunteersGetting involved hands-on and volunteering in our local communities is something our team is incredibly passionate about. Three years ago, we rolled out our first-ever “Be the Sunshine” week and had great success doing so. It is now a bi-annual event that we hold in February and in August of each year! Be The Sunshine is a unique way to get all our offices, agents, and staff involved with a local volunteer program of their choice!

Last month each of our offices picked a non-profit organization or volunteer program, gathered together, and spent one day giving back. Collectively, they were able to volunteer at all of the below in just one week!

  • Feeding Tampa Bay (Brandon & Riverview Offices)
  • The Thomas Foundation (Wesley Chapel Office)
  • Pet Pals Animal Shelter (St. Petersburg & St. Pete Beach Offices)
  • The Humane Society of Tampa Bay (South Tampa Office)
  • Gator Nationals BMX Race (East Lake Office)
  • Boys and Girls Club of Polk County (Lakeland Office)
  • Toy Makers of East Lake (Home Office)
  • The Volunteer Way (Port Richey Office)
  • Volunteer Event for Ukraine Families (Countryside Office)
  • Habitat for Humanity (Busch Blvd, Tampa Palms & Spring Hill Offices)
  • The Rap House (Trinity Office)
  • Hope Villages of America Food Bank (Clearwater Beach & Belleair Offices)

It is also a great team-building and fun activity for each office to better get to know one another. Teamwork is one of our core values and we have found that getting our agents and staff members together to do something they can choose and are passionate about is a great way to strengthen their relationships. It’s a fun way for our agents to bond with each other and their staff outside of everyday office life, while also giving back their time to the community!

Our goal for the future is to continue getting our agents involved and inspired. It is an honor to have such passionate people on our team who not only always step up when donations are needed but lend their hand in service, it truly means so much. It is so exciting to see our very own staff and agents making a difference in the communities that we live, work, and play in! In a world that is sometimes gloomy, let’s Be the Sunshine.
