Living Their Values: Realty ONE Volunteers at Blessings of Hope

Dear Friends, 

At Blessings of Hope, we love seeing groups come together to serve, bringing both their energy and their values into action. Recently, Realty ONE, a local real estate brokerage serving Lancaster County, did just that. Instead of just talking about community, they lived it—and in doing so, they made a direct impact on local families. 

Realty ONE chose to volunteer with us as part of ONE Cares Day, their company’s national day of service. This day also marks their founding anniversary, making it a meaningful time to reflect on their values: building relationships and strengthening communities. For the Realty ONE team, serving with Blessings of Hope was the perfect way to celebrate—working side by side to give back to the community they serve every day.

The group shared how impressed they were with their volunteer experience: 

“We were so impressed with how seamlessly Blessings of Hope was able to accommodate our large group. From the moment we arrived, everything was well-organized—clear instructions, plenty of workstations, and tasks that allowed everyone to participate and stay engaged. There was something for everyone, and the staff made sure we were well-informed and comfortable working.” 

Hearing feedback like this excites us—because it’s not just about the work completed, but also about creating a meaningful, positive experience for those who serve.
