Stacy Stemen’s foresight was fueled by a desire to foster a sense of community among women working in an industry where they often find themselves navigating a sea of male counterparts. Recognizing the need for a dedicated space where women could connect, network, and support each other, she proposed the idea of an exclusive brunch during the NMHC annual conference.

This year’s Women’s VIP Brunch, held at the San Diego Wine & Culinary Center, was a resounding success! Attendees were welcomed with an intimate and conducive environment for networking and collaboration, breaking away from the usual conference setting and allowing for meaningful connections to flourish.

Adding a touch of glamour and philanthropy to the event, the Women’s VIP Brunch partnered with renowned jewelry brand Kendra Scott. Kendra Scott generously donated gifts to all attendees, providing a token of appreciation for their presence. Additionally, Kendra Scott set up a jewelry display at the event, with all sales proceeds dedicated to CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women) Network’s local Orange County chapter. This partnership contributed to supporting CREW’s mission of empowering women in the CRE industry.

The Women’s VIP Brunch at the NMHC annual conference stands as a testament to the power of vision and the impact that can be achieved when women come together to support one another. As the brunch celebrates its third year, it is clear that this annual tradition is here to stay, providing inspiration and empowerment for years to come.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the event’s esteemed sponsors: Apartment Snapshot, Asset Essentials, ePremium, Flex, iApartments, Passco Companies, Pay Ready, ResidentIQ, ResMan, and Valet Living. Your generous support is truly appreciated.

“We walk for the people who can’t: for those too weakened by treatment to join. For those who are suffering. For those we have lost. Together we will fight back against breast cancer.”

On September 25th, we gathered together as ONE at the Orange County MORE THAN PINK Walk to support Susan G. Komen and their ONE goal: to end breast cancer forever.

The MORE THAN PINK Walk is Komen’s signature fundraising event where everyone can come together and share stories, laughter, and tears to raise money that saves lives while celebrating survivors, those living with breast cancer, and honoring loved ones lost.

Komen’s comprehensive 360-degree approach to fighting this disease across all fronts includes advocating for patients, driving research breakthroughs, improving access to high-quality care, offering direct patient support and empowering people with trustworthy information. Komen’s mission supports millions of people in the U.S. and in countries worldwide.

We are excited to share that, together, we helped raise $564,053! Team Passco significantly surpassed our fundraising goal and hit a total of $6,872!

Komen’s mission is only as strong as the community that supports it and what we have accomplished together is no small feat. We are proud to have demonstrated true passion and commitment to the breast health community through our sponsorship.
