What we believe in

The Mortgage House has built its foundation around our community involvement. We continue to give back to our community in many different ways. Throughout the year we run campaigns and volunteer our time to help different charities.

Our biggest contribution of giving back runs the month of December. Rack’d is our 24 days of giving in December, we volunteer our time, donate supplies and try to make everyone’s December a little easier.

2021 RACK’d Campaigns

It’s the first day of our Random Acts of Christmas Kindness.

Day 5

For day 5 of RACK’d we began stuffing stockings in partnership with Hope Mission, a local organization working tirelessly to break the cycle of poverty for Red Deer kids! The stockings will brighten Christmas for 22 boys and 34 girls between the ages of 6 & 13 this year.
We will be gratefully accepting additional stocking stuffers up until December 15th, so if you’d like to contribute, there’s still time!!

Day 6 – Salvation Army Kettle Bells

Salvation Army Kettle Bells, every year we enjoy our time volunteering at the different locations. This year we were at the Bower mall.

Day 7 – Breakfast Kindness

This morning a group from our TPTM Alberta office along with our realtor partners and a group of our BC TPTM team met for breakfast. This breakfast came with one condition. The price of entry was a brown back, red back or maybe 2. The idea being we would pay the bill with our big bill and leave the remaining as a tip. Today we hope we made our two lovely servers days a little brighter, with a tip total of over $850 ?.

Day 8 Donation to TCMG

Donation of $400 in grocery gift cards for TCMG (tri-cities moms group) Hamper program.

Day 9 – Gift Wrapping

Every year we pull out our gift wrapping skills for a good cause, this year we wrapped in support of the Outreach Centre.

On the 10th day of RACKd we hit the streets to leave a lil joy on the cars around the hospital. Hopefully we brought a smile to some faces!!
