Community: Our Commitment is here to stay.
DP Partners goes in for the long haul—and always has. Progress brings change and we have evolved with the times, in fact, often ahead of the times. We have held fast to our principles, values, and integrity for almost a half century. When we look at a project, we bring sharp pencils and sophisticated methods, always visualizing the big picture. We become part of your community.
The Dermody Properties Foundation was founded in 1988, funded by the profits generated by the hard work and dedication of all employees at DP Partners. In 2007 there was a significant change in the Foundation policy, today ten percent of all projects that are held in the DP Partners portfolio will be owned by the Foundation. It will proportionately share profits on those projects.
With a focus on the arts, education, and the family, as well as a special emphasis on children and the elderly, our employee-managed Foundation has provided funds and volunteer support to over 200 worthy non-profit organizations and community causes.
In communities in which we do business across the country, we are pleased to have awarded grants/scholarships to organizations such as: Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Northern Nevada Food Bank, The Rescue Mission, Committee to Aid Abused Women, Hub City Senior Center, Pioneer Center for the Performing Arts, Nevada Opera Foundation, Georgia Southern University (scholarships), YWCA, and Better Boys Foundation. We are especially proud to have sponsored two Habitat for Humanity houses—with both funds and volunteer labor.
When we say we become a part of your community, it’s not just talk.
