Combating Diabetes Through Community Involvement
We participated in the 2023 JDRF Real Estate Games to support its mission of raising awareness among Members of Congress of the financial, medical and emotional costs of Type 1 diabetes. The JDRF Real Estate Games, held annually at American University in Washington, DC, bring together real estate companies, CRE industry professionals, and community organizations for a day of friendly competition and fundraising. Our participation in this meaningful initiative not only showcased our commitment to combating diabetes, but also exemplified the profound impact that community involvement can have in driving positive change.

Sharing a Passion for Making a Difference
From relay races to soccer and basketball, the games provided an opportunity for participants to not only engage in friendly competition but also to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for making a difference. As more companies join forces with research foundations like JDRF, we move closer to finding better treatments and, ultimately, a cure for diabetes.
