YOUR SUPPORT MEANS THE WORLD! 2022 as the 2nd highest contributing agent and #1 in Maryland for Children’s national! This is out of the 2,242 agents that fundraise for Children’s hospital in our region. There are 83 RE/MAX offices in our region that support Children’s Nation. My position on the board of directors at Spring Dell Center, in La Plata, has allowed me to see firsthand what a guided and structured program can do for our adults with disabilities. We are only as healthy as the community in which we serve and we all have a responsibility to make a difference where we can.

2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 Winner They say home is where your story starts, and this is certainly true in my case. As I reflect back on these past few years, I realize, now more than ever, the importance of giving back. The foundation of my business has always been gratitude, and I am always looking for ways that I can make a difference in my community. My clients, family and friends have given me more than I could ever give back, and to this, I again say, thank you. I have been honored and privileged to help plan and facilitate the “Bears Of Love” fundraiser with friends and colleague Candy Meyers. Our annual fundraiser for 2023 raised more than $300,000 for Children’s Hospital. We joined Finn’s Fierce Fight, every dollar raised is earmarked for Dr. Packer, Finn’s doctor. Research is the key, DIPG is an inoperable pediatric brain cancer with less than 1% of Federal funding. Our mission is to raise awareness and to find a cure for DIPG! Through the Miracle Home program with RE/MAX, I pledge a portion of my commission of each transaction, and I am humbled to have reached “Miracle Agent” status. I was honored to be recognized in

www.LisaWills.com LisaSellsRemax@gmail.com

In 2021, I started a kindness campaign called, “I SEEEE YOU”! I want my community to know how much they are appreciated. I catch people doing random acts of kindness in any capacity and award them with an acknowledgement of a HUGE thank you. My clients, family and friends are the foundations of any success I enjoy. I am very grateful for their support and trusted referrals. My pledge is to always find a way to give back!

WHAT ARE THE COMMUNITY CHOICE AWARDS?

Each year, the Community Choice Awards polls local communities across the country to choose the best businesses and organizations in their area. Through a public nomination and voting process, more than 200 communities choose the best of the best. Whether you need to find an exceptional plumber or the best spot for a burger, you can count on locals for their insights.

HOW IT WORKS PHASE

#1

The nomination phase. The public submits their favorite businesses and organizations in each of the 150+ categories.

PHASE

#2

PHASE

#3

The voting round. The top five nominees in each of the 150+ categories move on to this round, where the public votes on the winners.

The celebration! A special edition winners’ section is published in the newspaper. This makes a handy keepsake guide to the top businesses and organizations in the area.

In select markets, a gala-style live awards show is held to celebrate the top three finalists, and the winners are announced. In addition, nominations, voting and final results will be available on your local paper’s website during each phase.

LAWN CARE

PEST CONTROL

“They have been taking care of my lawn for a while now, and it’s never looked better! Their staff is great – professional, knowledgeable and friendly!” – Carol S.

“They have started to bring our lawn to life. We were stuck with the worst clay soil and couldn’t get anything but weeds to grow before they stepped in. Great work. Highly recommended.” – Marcella E. “Very professional with a hometown feel. They take pride in their work and it shows. My lawn needed serious repair and they were able to complete in 1 season.” – Andrew B.
