How We Are Involved

We know the community because we’re part of the community.

As a local company with offices in Portland, Vancouver and Eugene, we do more than business here. We live here. That’s why we sponsor events and organizations that help the community, like Oregon Food Bank, Northwest Pilot Project and Camp Rosenbaum. We also participate in Rebuild Together to help local homeowners in need, doing anything from demo to installations. We’re board members of key industry associations, including Affordable Housing Management Association, Institute of Real Estate Management, and Multifamily NW in Portland and the southern Willamette Valley.

CRMG also maintains MFNW Board presence with members serving on the Government Affairs Committee. This group stays abreast of all legal and political matters, focusing on current and proposed policy/law changes that affect professional practices in our industry. Ongoing efforts to collaborate with policy makers and maintain connection on issues impacting our management practices and, ultimately, our client’s real estate assets, distinguishes our services from our competitors. Our membership in all of these organizations enhances our knowledge of both our industry and the community we live in and serve.

As a company and as individual employees, we contribute to and serve the community at large as well as build strong communities within our management portfolio.

Within the CRMG portfolio–particularly our income-restricted buildings–we encourage managers and on-site employees to work with organizations to meet the needs of struggling residents. Residents in our Single Room Occupancy (SRO) buildings, for instance, receive holiday meals, food bank assistance, a clothing bank, and access to an education coordinator who specializes in matching residents with community organizations. Many employees of CRMG have been recognized by these organizations for their efforts.

As a company, we are involved with a variety of programs. Each December, we participate in the following:

  • Adopt-A-Family program to provide families in need with food, household items, clothing, and toys.
  • For the 2007-10 school years, the corporate office participated in the Adopt-A-Classroom program at Humboldt Elementary School, a Title I school in North Portland. The program teams up businesses with classrooms to provide support, encouragement, and mentors to children.
  • We have also helped with Northwest Pilot Project's Walk-A-Thon for a number of years both as walk-a-thon participants and a corporate sponsor.
  • Additional projects include supporting graduates of the Salvation Army's White Shield Center and Schoolhouse Supplies.

Employees continue this dedication in their personal lives by donating to and volunteering with fantastic organizations such as:

  • Hands On Greater Portland
  • The Cascade AIDS Project
  • Oregon Food Bank
  • Providence Festival of the Trees
  • Volunteers of America
  • Northwest Pilot Project, and many others.
