Wendt Center donation

“I had an amazing experience working with Erin Finke to secure our home loan 6 years ago. She contacted me recently to make a donation to the Wendt Center where I work as a trauma and grief psychotherapist. This donation will allow our clinical team to continue to provide quality therapy services to adults and children healing from trauma and grief. It means a lot to me that Erin would remember the important work I do, and for the Yi team to contribute to the healing of the clients we serve.”  

– Tracie Doherty, Wendt Center Psychotherapist

Our Mortgages Are On A Mission

Thanks again to our borrowers! Every home loan we close enables us to invest in charities who are working to create a positive change in the world.

Years ago when Chong Yi opened his branch, his goal was to help those in need in his community. Chong and his teammates developed Mortgage On A Mission so that they could not only help families achieve their dream of homeownership, but take some of those rewards and put it back into our global community.

Since then, The Yi Team has been able to donate over $100,000 to American Cancer Society, DIPG, Heartly House, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Creciendo Juntos, Rainbow Place Shelter, Alzheimer’s Association, LovePaws, A Wider Circle and now Wendt Center!

Stay tuned to our social media pages for upcoming events supporting Wendt Center!

Kellie Hodges

Being denied for a mortgage can feel like the end of the road. For one family, it almost was.
