This past weekend, Mortgage Loan Originator Erik Boci of Interstate Home Loans had the opportunity…
Interstate Home Loans Center walks Together for Breast Cancer Awareness on Long Island
At Interstate Home Loan Center, we believe that being part of a community means showing up for one another, supporting meaningful causes, and making a difference beyond the workplace. This commitment was on full display as our team members came together at Jones Beach on Long Island for the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk.
Despite the cold weather, our team proudly participated in the walk to support breast cancer awareness, honor survivors, and stand alongside those whose lives have been affected by breast cancer. This event held special meaning for our Interstate family as we walked in support of our fellow team member, Carmela Abarno, a breast cancer survivor.
Walking Together for a Cause That Matters
Having Carmela as part of our team made this experience especially meaningful. Her journey as a survivor served as a powerful reminder of the strength, resilience, and hope that can carry people through life’s most challenging moments.
Our team came together not only to show support for Carmela, but also to stand with the many individuals, families, and communities impacted by breast cancer. Even on a chilly day at Jones Beach, the spirit of togetherness, compassion, and determination made the experience unforgettable.
As part of our participation, Interstate Home Loan Center proudly donated $1,000 to the American Cancer Society, helping support its ongoing efforts to fight breast cancer and make a difference in the lives of those affected by the disease.
More Than Mortgages: Supporting Our Long Island Community
At Interstate Home Loan Center, our work goes beyond helping Long Island homebuyers navigate the homeownership journey. While we are passionate about helping individuals and families achieve their dreams of owning a home, we also believe in building stronger communities through compassion, teamwork, and community involvement.
Whether we are guiding first-time homebuyers, helping families explore their mortgage options, or participating in local charitable events, our mission is rooted in relationships and a commitment to making a positive impact.
Events like Making Strides Against Breast Cancer reflect the values that bring our team together. They remind us that meaningful change often begins when people unite behind a shared purpose and support one another through life’s biggest challenges.
Together, We Make a Difference
We are proud of our Interstate Home Loan Center team members who took the time to participate in this important event, especially under the cold October skies at Jones Beach. Most importantly, we are grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside Carmela and celebrate her strength as a survivor.
At Interstate, we know that togetherness is about more than working toward shared goals. It is about being there for one another, giving back to our community, and standing behind the causes that matter most.
Together, we walk for hope, celebrate survivors, and help build a stronger, more compassionate Long Island community.
