OLIVE BRANCH, MISS. - Realtors and employees of Crye-Leike Real Estate Services' Olive Branch, MS office surprised 275 healthcare workers at Methodist Olive Branch Hospital with breakfast and lunch, in an effort to thank them for their service throughout the hardships of the pandemic. When one of her clients, a therapist at Methodist Olive Branch Hospital, told Kristi McNeely, a realtor with Crye-Leike's Olive Branch office, that many local healthcare workers were feeling exhausted and drained, McNeely immediately wanted to do something to help alleviate their stress. "I used to be a nurse, and I just cannot imagine what they are going through," said McNeely. "There is much more joy in doing something for others while they are feeling down, than doing something for yourself." Knowing that a good meal can make all the difference for a busy healthcare worker, McNeely encouraged her fellow agents at the Crye-Leike office to donate money to purchase lunch for the hospital staff. Within a week, the office raised enough money to not only buy lunch, but breakfast as well. "Our healthcare workers are struggling and need community support," said McNeely. "We wanted to do something for our local workers that would lift their spirits just a bit. I cannot thank my fellow agents enough for helping me with this. I hope others will see this and be inspired to do something similar for their local hospital. It was greatly appreciated!"

Bella Vista, AR: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services recognizes Realtor Dave Armstrong for raising $2,000 for the Junior Golf Program of Bella Vista. In the beginning of November, Armstrong hosted the First Annual Futures Cup Golf Tournament to benefit the Junior Golf Program. Armstrong has been affiliated with Crye-Leike's Bella Vista office for two years and is always looking for new ways to give back to his cherished community. Organizing this tournament was a way for Armstrong to bring together some of Bella Vistas most avid golfers while raising money for a great cause. "It was important to all of us that this tournament was not just about us having fun on a glorious weekend," said Armstrong. "It was special that we were able to give back to help the future of golf in this area. That is why we called it the Futures Cup. I'm so proud of everyone that participated and for their generosity!" With 28 golfers participating in the Futures Cup Tournament, Armstrong was able to coordinate two teams of 14 players, captained by local golf enthusiasts Larry Apathy and Charley Powell. Longtime Bella Vista resident Andy O'Neil served as Grand Marshall for the tournament and after three rounds of golf using various formats, Apathy's team came out victorious. Although half of the golfers did not come out on top, the purpose of the tournament goes well beyond the idea of winning and losing. "The real winners here are the kids," said Armstrong. "What a delight to help them on their journey of reaching their goals and aspirations in life. I'm already looking forward to next year's event!"

Rogers, AR:Rogers community member and Crye-Leike Managing Broker Chuck Gay recently discovered that many neighbors and local businesses have fallen on hard times due to the current economic climate. His first instinct was to figure out what he could do to help. Using the Nextdoor Neighbor app, Gay reached out to over 1,600 community members to ask what was need most in their community. After receiving an overwhelming response from neighbors, Gay found that an easy-access food pantry was in high demand. Only two weeks later, with the support from a local handyman, a local woodworker and monetary donations from the community, a food pantry was built. According to Gay, since the pantry opened last Saturday, there has been a constant flow of people dropping off food donations, as well as those that need food. It is a "take what you need, leave what you can" pantry. "We saw several businesses had to close their doors and spoke with several neighbors that were having difficulty making ends meet," said Gay. "We have a ton of support from the community and plan to keep this pantry open year-round." The new food pantry is set up in the driveway of the Crye-Leike Rogers - Beavers Lake branch office, located at 14566 Hwy 12 East, and those who visit are asked to use the provided wipes on all products and the hand sanitizer. For more information regarding the food pantry, please contact the Crye-Leike Rogers - Beavers Lake branch office at (479) 925-1313, or email Chuck Gay at chuck.gay@crye-leike.com.   ABOUT CRYE-LEIKE: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services (www.crye-leike.com), a full service real estate company for over 40 years, is ranked as the third largest independently-owned real estate firm in the nation and the largest serving Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and the Mid-South.

Nashville, TN: After asking around the Nashville community and discovering that Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee was in need of help, Crye-Leike East Nashville Realtor Tony White decided that he wanted to raise awareness for the organization. The tornados that ripped through Middle Tennessee in the beginning of March left many residents reaching out to Second Harvest for help. With the Coronavirus following next, those numbers have risen rapidly. White, who had been training for a marathon that canceled due to COVID-19, decided to raise awareness for Second Harvest in a way that not many others could even think about doing - by running 100 miles in one day. "Basically, I just thought that I'm going to go run 100 miles to raise awareness for a charity that is really hurting right now, but is still serving so many people in need," said White. Starting at 5a.m. in Sylvan Park, White ran around the Downtown and East Nashville areas, using parts of the Greenway Trail and local parks to finish his run around 9p.m. It was a long day, but he didn't have to complete the 16 hour journey alone. "I think I only ran about 15 of the 100 miles by myself because I had so many friends that wanted to help out," said White. "My wife ended up running 32 miles with me and the longest run that she has done in the past 4-5 months was only about 15. It was a very long day, but the weather was perfect; although I did get a pretty good sunburn!" So how exactly was White able to raise money for Second Harvest? The organization set up a virtual food drive for White to share with his friends, family and neighbors. Posting videos on his Instagram (@tonywhitetri) throughout his run, White ended up with over 2.5x his normal amount of viewers following along and encouraged them to donate. As the week has gone on, White's virtual food drive has now accumulated over $6,800 in donations! In Middle Tennessee, 1 in 8 adults including 1 in 6 children struggle with hunger every day. For every $1 donated, Second Harvest can provide four meals to hungry children, families and seniors. White has gone above and beyond to uphold Crye-Leike's Core Value of being a "good neighbor".

Mount Juliet, TN: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services announces that its Mount Juliet branch office has raised $7,600 during its 15th Annual Martin Cummings Sweet Tooth Auction.

Since 2004, Crye-Leike's Mount Juliet office has raised over $60,000 through its auction to benefit agencies affiliated with United Way of Wilson County.

By Crye-Leike's Public Relations Coordinator Katie Wainman I recently spent a hot September day in Nashville, TN visiting different non-profit organizations that are partly funded by United Way. With Crye-Leike's United Way campaign coming up, it was truly a great experience to learn about some of the local non-profits that support Middle Tennessee. Here is what I learned: Interfaith Dental Upon arriving at Interfaith Dental, we were met by the lighthearted Chief Development Officer Beverly Grant. Walking into the building, I did not really know what to expect. I did not fully understand the need for an organization like this. Is it just a regular dentist office? What's so special about this place? As it turns out, Interfaith Dental is not your typical run-of-the-mill dentist office. In its simplest form, they offer extremely low priced or free dental services to impoverished patients. This isn't just a standard cleaning two times a year. If you haven't had the privilege of affording dental care your whole life, or were not taught the importance of dental care, chances are you suffer from serious oral health issues. Interfaith Dental makes it their mission to treat patients long-term, to teach patients about the importance of dental care and to give patients the access to the resources they'll need for proper oral hygiene. Interfaith Dental strives to make our communities healthier and relies heavily on volunteers, supply donations and funding from organizations such as United Way to make that happen. Stars After moving on from all of the teeth talk, it was time to visit the Stars organization to discuss their impact on the area. The Youth Opportunity Center is the home to five non-profit organizations that focus on helping the youth, including Stars. The inside of the building is vibrant and everything from the furniture to the art work gives off an aura of fun and comfort. We got to speak with Chief Development Officer Erin Duanic about what Stars offers to Middle Tennessee and how the organization is able to stay afloat. Duanic explained to us that Stars offers various academic (K-12) and communal programs to address issues such as substance abuse, bullying and violence. Every program that Stars executes is evidenced-based. This means that, in order for Stars to gain funding for a program or to keep a program running, they need to prove that it is having a positive effect on the youth. This isn't always the easiest, as we learned some programs are harder to collect data for than others. The Stars organization is heavily involved in the communities in Middle Tennessee and can only continue to have an impact if they receive help from donors. Oasis Staying on the topic of Nashville's youth, we then spoke with the Oasis Director of College Connection Lee Gray. Oasis is also located in the Youth Opportunity Center and works closely with Stars. It was impressive to learn about all of the programs Oasis offers. Some of the programs include college and career preparations, youth and family counseling services, LGBTQ safety and acceptance, street outreach for homeless adolescents, and an emergency shelter for crisis situations. With a diverse range of programs, Oasis is able to help over 3,500 youths throughout Middle Tennessee annually. The staff at Oasis does everything in their power to ensure that each child or young adult who enters the center leaves with a better life than they had before. They teach youth how to build healthy relationships, positive habits and a better future for themselves. As with any other non-profit organization, Oasis could not make these strides without the help from numerous volunteers and outside funding. Sexual Assault Center The last stop on our trip, and I would argue the most impactful - the Sexual Assault Center (SAC). Going into the center, I knew that it wasn't going to be as energetic as the places we visited earlier in the day. The Sexual Assault Center is a place that you never want to have to utilize, but if you do, it can be your best resource for help. We were met in the quiet lobby by Vice President of Marketing and Fundraising Dorothy (Dott) Freeman. There was something about the center that felt warm and comforting. Evidently, Freeman explained to us that every inch of the center was created for that purpose. Everything in the center, even down to the wall colors, helped you feel more relaxed. The SAC has four realms of focus: therapy, advocate services, prevention and the safe clinic. It was amazing to hear about how many people the center has helped, and how its outreach to the community has impacted Middle Tennessee. Last year, 2,510 calls were answered by the SAC's 24-hour Crisis & Support Line, 661 sexual assault survivors participated in 10,554 therapy sessions and 41 rape survivors were supported by the SAC's Advocate Services team. Keeping the center running is not cheap. To put it into perspective, $1,000 supports therapy for one individual for six weeks, but a sexual assault victim needs 18 - 24 months of therapy on average. Funding from organizations such as United Way are extremely important to keeping the SAC up and running. How Can You Make a Difference? Arriving back to my office, I was able to reflect on everything that I had learned that day. Every single leader I met was welcoming, generous and clearly passionate about what they do. One even mentioned that, "It's not an industry you join to get rich. You join because you want to help the cause." From October 21st - November 1st, we ask that you help the cause by supporting Crye-Leike's campaign for United Way. It is our hope that the non-profit organizations in your communities can continue to thrive and better the lives of those in need. For more information on how you can donate, please contact Crye-Leike's Public Relations Coordinator, Katie Wainman, at katie.wainman@crye-leike.com.

Clarksville, TN: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services of Clarksville - St. Bethlehem is proud to announce they have partnered with local soup kitchen, Loaves & Fishes, to support their Fall Harvest Food Drive.

"This will be our third year doing this, and we are honored to help support such a wonderful organization that will contribute to feeding so many families in need." The collection of food items will be donated directly to Loaves & Fishes, an organization that, on average, serves 190-230 meals a day, six days a week, in the Clarksville community.

'There is no home for hunger' Nashville, TN: Crye-Leike Property Management announces that its Middle Tennessee offices will be participating in Second Harvest's Hunger Action Month. From September 1st to September 27th, locals can drop off non-perishable food items at any of the 21 Crye-Leike Real Estate or Property Management offices within the Middle Tennessee region. Second Harvest hosts this annual campaign to ensure that local communities take action on the issue of hunger. Hunger knows no boundary, it has no social class and it lives in your community. Statistics say that nationally, 15.7 percent of all households experience food hardship. That number rises considerably for households with children to 17.5 percent nationally. In the South alone, the number is climbing to an alarming 17.5 to 19.3 percent depending on the state. This year, Crye-Leike Property Management in Middle Tennessee wants to uphold Crye-Leike's Core Value of being a "Good Neighbor" by encouraging its agents, employees and residents of the Nashville communities to donate to this great cause. Second Harvest works hard to ensure that the food raised within the local communities will be used to feed the people facing hunger in those communities. Crye-Leike Property Management Executive Vice President Linda Ayers is proud of her office's participation in this event and looks forward to making a positive impact in this region. "The Property Management Division of Crye-Leike takes our company's Core Values very seriously," said Ayers. "We strive to make a positive difference in our communities as much as we can. The hunger crisis in this country is real and getting worse each year. I have been amazed at the wonderful work Feeding America has been doing across the country, and I instantly knew this was something we would want to get involved in. Crye-Leike Property Management is very excited to partner with Second Harvest to raise awareness and take a stand against hunger in Middle Tennessee." Although all non-perishable food items are welcomed, the following items are most needed by donation: Peanut butter Canned meats (Chicken/Tuna) Canned fruits and vegetables Soups and stews Pastas Cereals For more information regarding the locations of Middle Tennessee Crye-Leike offices and their hours of operations, please visit the Crye-Leike website at https://www.crye-leike.com/real-estate-offices/TN/Middle+Tennessee.

Nashville, TN: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services has teamed up with Youth Villages of Middle Tennessee to support the Backpack Heroes Program for the 19th consecutive year. This year, Crye-Leike broke its record, donating 494 backpacks full of school supplies to Youth Villages. Youth Villages is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to helping emotionally and behaviorally troubled children and their families live successfully through home-based counseling, therapeutic foster care, adoption services, residential treatment, community-based programs and crisis and prevention services.

"We're proud to have supported Youth Villages in their Backpack Heroes drive for so many years now," said Mr. Crye. "The support from our agents never ceases to amaze me.

I'm very proud of what it's become." Crye-Leike Principal Broker and Administrative Manager for Middle Tennessee Jason Murphy has organized the Crye-Leike offices' participation in the Backpack Heroes Program year-after-year.

Buford, GA: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services has teamed up with Volunteers of America Southeast to begin collecting backpacks filled with school supplies to donate to school children in the surrounding areas. Over the past eight years, Volunteers of America Southeast has helped over 5,000 students through Operation Backpack. This year, Crye-Leike's new Buford - Flowery branch office is looking to contribute to that. Many children in local areas live in poverty, and it is important to Crye-Leike that those children are getting the supplies they need and deserve before each school year begins. For Crye-Leike Office Administrator Nancy Hicks, Operation Backpack hits close to home. "This drive is so near and dear to my heart because I'm a former special education teacher of Gwinnett County Public Schools," said Hicks. "I've seen first-hand how children feel when they come to school without supplies. Some children even come to school without backpacks, and other children come to school with backpacks that are torn or soiled. Every child deserves their own supplies and fresh backpacks!" Community members in Buford and surrounding areas may drop off filled backpacks at 4949 Lanier Islands Parkway, Suite 101, Monday through Friday from 8:30a.m. 5:30p.m. from now until July 26th.

Bryant, AR: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services in Bryant, AR recently collected food and hygiene products to donate to the Saline County Library to benefit children throughout the summer months. The Crye-Leike Bryant branch office had been collecting food and hygiene products for over a month to donate to the Saline County Library.

The eight week program is hoping to feed 125 kids per week, with a confidential and discreet pick up process. The Bryant office was able to fill three large donation boxes with food and hygiene products with the help of Receptionist Patti Seals, Office Administrator Kathy Bailey and Bryant Top Producer Toni Knowles. "Most of us don't think that the kids of Saline County only get one meal a day provided by the schools," said Seals. "I feel blessed beyond measure that I can help provide for these kids in a small way." Crye-Leike has a core value to be a "good corporate neighbor", and the Bryant branch office has upheld that value throughout the years.

Memphis, TN: Crye-Leike Real Estate Services was the number one donor for the Youth Villages' 5K/10Miler for the 37th consecutive year, raising approximately $5K between the agents and employees alone. The event was held on Saturday, April 13th and several Crye-Leike affiliates braved the rain to participate. The Crye-Leike Memphis area branch offices have been involved in the race every year since it began in 1982. Chris Crye, the late son of CEO and Co-founder Harold Crye, was an avid supporter of Youth Villages. In his memory, the agents and employees of Crye-Leike carry on a tradition of caring for kids who deserve every opportunity to learn and succeed. A portion of the money raised by this race also supports the Chris Crye Mentoring Program at Youth Villages. Paula Dismuke, a member of the Youth Villages Committee and Crye-Leike employee, organized the participation and donations of the Crye-Leike branch offices and is proud of the impact the company has had on this event. "I have been fortunate to have been involved with this Youth Villages event for the past four years," said Dismuke. "Seeing the outpouring support from agents and employees of Crye-Leike in the Memphis region for this organization has truly touched my heart. By our donations, and that of Crye-Leike, we will ensure that the legacy of Chris Crye continues."

Crye-Leike Real Estate Services has a core belief of being a "good neighbor", meaning the company and its agents make giving back to communities a priority. Around the holidays and back-to-school season, the volunteer rate increases and people all over the country do what they can to make a positive impact on their communities. However, community service is not seasonal. Many cities and towns need help from volunteers year-round, but unfortunately the volunteer rate is not as high when holiday cheer is not around. Here are steps you can take to become an active volunteer this spring: 1. Think about your interests Schools, homeless shelters, animal shelters, hospitals, the elderly and the environment are usually the first topics people think about when the idea of volunteering comes to mind. It can all be a bit overwhelming, but you are not a super hero, and you do not have to try to help everyone. Pick one topic to indulge in and run with it. Over time, you might find that you have the energy and resources to do more. 2. How much time do you want to dedicate to your community? If you have the time to organize your own team of people and lead your own event, then that is great! However, most people do not have that kind of time, and that's okay too. You do not always have to spend months planning what your next volunteer opportunity is going to be. Chances are you can spend one afternoon helping an already established organization. After a while, see if you can turn that "one afternoon" into a "once a month afternoon". 3. Research events and activities If you do not want to host your own event, simply look into what other organizations are doing. Many towns have websites with community calendars, or you can look in the local paper to see if there are any event advertisements. Figure out what kind of community service you feel comfortable doing that fits your interest, and contact a member of the organization to see what you can do to help. If you want to host your own event, try to make it unique and different, in hopes you will get more volunteers or donations. You do not want to end up hosting an event that someone is already having. Volunteering is not a competition. If you find that there is an area of interest that is lacking help, pursue that. 4. Go out and help your community! Hopefully by this point you have figured out what topic of interest you want to focus on, what kind of time you can dedicate to helping your community and which event or activity you want to be a part of. Now, go do that!! Go help at your local soup kitchen, donate clothing and toys, or clean up rivers, highways and parks. Do what you need to do to make your town a better place, because being a good neighbor is what makes a great community.

Smyrna, TN: Each year in celebration of the holiday season, the town of Smyrna organizes a festive Christmas parade for their community. Local businesses are encouraged to participate under the condition that they pay an entry fee of the edible variety. The fee was not of money value but instead they requested canned food donations that could be given to help those in need at Nourish Food Bank. Crye-Leike Smyrna office stepped up to the challenge this month and organized their Annual Holiday Food Drive. This is the second year the Crye-Leike team has joined together to participate in the parade and all were eager to collect as many food items as possible to help those who need it most. As a fun way to encourage each participating business to collect as many canned goods as possible, Jill Strange, Parade Coordinator, created a traveling trophy. The trophy was to be awarded to the business that collected the most goods. Crye-Leike received this trophy last year and the competitive spirit of the team led them to win the trophy for another year. Out of 100 other businesses, Crye-Leike Smyrna collected the most food items, for a grand total of 1,978. Donations were made by team members, their families, and current and past clients. "The competition part of the drive is all in good fun," said Amber McEachron, Crye-Leike Realtor. "Ultimately, what drove us to participate and collect as much as we could was helping the people in our community and making sure they are taken care of." The parade ended up collecting an impressive 7,000 food items which so many people will benefit from this holiday season. "We love our community and we love giving back," said Nathan Fay, Crye-Leike Realtor. "Our team looks forward to participating in next years parade and we are hopeful that we can collect even more for our local food bank."

Jackson, Tenn: What started off as an idea, turned into a plan, and 50,000 views on Facebook with over 600 shares later, local Realtor, Colleen Owens, launched a successful Christmas light tour for the city of Jackson. As a way to bring more holiday spirit to the city, Owens decided to create a Christmas lights list and Google map that shows beautifully decorated homes in Madison, Chester, Henderson, and Crockett counties. "The idea came to me while I was decorating my own home," said Owens, Realtor for Crye*Leike Blue Skies. "I felt as if there werent as many residents who were putting up Christmas lights as the years before, and then I realized that those homes that are still decorating their outside are not necessarily all in one neighborhood." After the Thanksgiving holiday, Owens took several nightly trips around the city to discover the homes that were the most festive and added them to a list and map. The public can access the information from her Facebook page which is frequently updated. Homes included on the list can be removed if they wish to do so. "A lot of the houses on the list are decorated extremely well, it takes a lot of time and energy to decorate the outside of your home and many of the homeowners have been excited to find their homes on the list," said Owens. This is an affordable and fun way for families to explore the city and check out some beautifully decorated Christmas lights through the comfort of their vehicles. "Since this is the first year I have put this list together, I want to encourage more participants next year with a Christmas Lights Contest in 2018," said Owens.
