Steve Rodgers, President of Windermere Exclusive Properties, was awarded the ABLE Corporate Citizen of the Year Award at this year’s second annual A.B.L.E Awards Sunday, June 28th.
The Achievements in Business Leadership Excellence (ABLE) Awards were designed to recognize some of North County’s most active community members and businesses. The event was a celebration of doing business successfully, doing business responsibly, and doing business in the spirit of San Diego North.
“This award belongs to the entire Windermere Team. As real estate agents it’s our philosophy and our pleasure to give back to the communities that we work in and live in,” said Rodgers. “We will be persistent in promoting environmental efficiency and will continue to do our part to keep San Diego great.”
The spirit of the Corporate Citizen of the Year Award is to recognize those individuals who have demonstrated a philosophy of giving and corporate social responsibility to make a significant impact on the San Diego North region’s health and well being.
This year’s award recognizes Steve Rodgers as being a leader in his field, leading the way ethically and with his community’s best interest always in mind. His Community Outreach Programs have been of great help to his fellow citizens and always include the majority of his fellow Windermere associates.
Most recently the Windermere Exclusive Properties team hosted their 26th annual Community Service Day. The day consisted of dual bloods drives and a food drive. At the end of the day the event had collected 80 pints of blood from as well as 2 bags of red blood cells. In addition, over a ton of food was collected to provide a number of families with an emergency food box supplement for the month.
“The recognition of the general public shows agents that they are in fact helping the community grow,” said Steve Rodgers, President of Windermere Exclusive Properties, “which is a key component to creating a positive influence in this area.”
In past years Rodgers has been involved in doing commercials for the blood bank and has been involved in a number of Southern California Beach Clean-Ups and Cancer walks. He has also made contributions to the Children’s Hospital and Jenna Druck Foundation and gotten his hands dirty in a number of environmentally friendly green community events. Steve Rodger’s dedication to his craft and community combined to make him the ideal choice for the ABLE Corporate Citizen of the Year Award.
