July Donation

Thank You July Borrowers!

Thank you to all of our borrowers who closed on their home loan in July! You’re amazing and spectacular! By working with us, your home loan helped support The Alzheimer’s Association, a service that leads the way to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support.

Every month The Yi Team donates 1% to causes we care about, especially causes that help kids, health and those with home insecurities.

Alzheimer's Association and dementia

The Alzheimer’s Association

The Alzheimer’s Association began in 1980 thanks to caregivers and individuals affected by dementia who came together. They recognized the need for an organization that would unite caregivers, provide support to those facing Alzheimer’s and advance research into the disease.

Today, Alzheimer’s Association leads the way to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support.

But this is also a personal story for us. You might have worked with Kim Dassing on your home loan. Scroll down for a pic of Kim and her dad who battled Alzheimer’s.

Kim Dassing and her father

“I lost my dad, Donald Hoffman, to Alzheimer’s in 2017. It is a horrible disease that affects the whole family. I’m beyond proud and very honored that the company I am working for is making a donation to Alzheimer’s Association as part of the Mortgage On A Mission program. It’s so rewarding to work for a company who thrives on paying it forward!”

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, and now Alzheimer’s Association!

Stay tuned to our social media pages for upcoming events supporting Alzheimer’s Association!
