In the Words of Business Campaign Partners
“Close to 30 percent of our staff lives outside of Santa Fe. The high price of fuel makes it difficult for them to remain in their jobs. When Homewise helps our employees buy homes here, their commitment to the hospital grows and they are able to spend more time with their families and children, volunteer more time, and they support local businesses. This all creates a healthier community.”
— Alex Valdez, President and CEO, CHRISTUS St. Vincent Regional Medical Center
“Doing business for 80 years, we have relied on the expertise of several generations of local families. Santa Feans ought to care about keeping young people here, since they are the future leaders of our businesses. We are encouraging our employees to work with Homewise and purchase homes right here in our community.”
— Rick C de Baca, Vice President Sales, Big Jo True Value Hardware
“We are so fortunate that Homewise is helping our creative residents find and purchase affordable homes.”
“When our staff is happy and secure, they contribute more fully to our work. Recently Homewise helped two of our employees purchase homes in Santa Fe. Now the pride and accomplishment these women feel benefit the thousands of children we serve.”
— Catherine Oppenheimer, Founding Artistic Director, National Dance Institute of New Mexico
