Congratulations to our team member Tiffany Malone for being awarded the Good Neighbor Award from The Realtors Association of South Central Wisconsin!
Tiffany’s Community Advocacy Work
Tiffany tirelessly takes on challenges in order to make positive changes for our community and to address the racial disparities in homeownership in the Greater Madison area. As the co-creator of OWN IT: Building Black Wealth, she was acknowledged and awarded for all her work by her peers at the Realtors Association of South Central Wisconsin on Wednesday night, Feb. 1st, 2023 at a very special event. This award included a $4,000 donation to the OWN IT fund.
“I believe we have to bridge the homeownership gap, and that’s why I work so hard to educate my peers and community about the redlining legacy and about Black/brown homeownership. I know firsthand that creating ways to solve these problems is HARD! But I do believe that we can change the rules, laws, and legacies that have been handed down to us. I believe we can change them from systems that put so many people down into systems that lift everyone up.“ – Tiffany Malone
