Thanks October Borrowers!

Thank You October Borrowers!

Thank you to all of our borrowers who closed on their home loan in October! You’re amazing and spectacular! As a thank you, we are sending a donation to American Cancer Society. American Cancer Society is on a mission to free the world from cancer, all cancer, for all people.

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

About Mortgage On A Mission
American Cancer Society logo



American Cancer Society

American Cancer Society is on a mission to free the world from cancer. Until they do, they’ll be funding and conducting research, sharing expert information, supporting patients, and spreading the word about prevention. All so people can live longer — and better.

Since they were founded in 1913, American Cancer Society has expanded its reach and now includes the Real Men Wear Pink Competition in their fundraising efforts. Across the US, businessmen are invited to compete as the top fundraiser in their region – that’s how Chong Yi first got involved in 2019.

As a thank you to our borrowers who closed on their home loan in the month of October, and as part of our Mortgage On A Mission Campaign, we are making a donation to American Cancer Society. Working with amazing borrowers and referral partners means we can make a greater impact on causes like this, and makes every loan we close even more meaningful. Read more about Jen Hansel’s breast cancer journey here.

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 Wendt Center!

What It’s Really Like to Apply for a Home Loan Let’s be honest – filling out a loan application for a mortgage feels intimidating to a lot of people. I get it.
