Our employees out in their communities
Our employees are encouraged to support the local causes and organizations that make a difference in their local communities.
September 2020
David Angrove from our Bothell, WA, branch is making a positive difference in the lives of children and adults touched by hardship through the Assistance League of the Eastside (ALE) (www.aleastide.org).
While ALE focuses on poverty, homelessness, assault, and domestic violence, one of their signature contributions back to the community is their “Operation School Bell,” which annually clothes over 3,000 K–12 students from the local eastside school district.
David and his wife have personally volunteered for ALE for many years, and in particular, they have assisted parents and their children as they pick out clothes and essentials at Operation School Bell fundraising events.
APMCares has been a previous sponsor of ALE fundraising events, which has included their Home Tours. Due to COVID-19, ALE has had to cancel various 2020 events, resulting in fundraising shortages. Consequently, David and his branch provided a sizable APMCares financial donation to offer continued support for this worthy cause during these challenging times.

Heather Rigano of our APM Home Office has been volunteering and supporting My Mother’s Voice for several years. My Mother's Voice is a California-based charity working to end generational poverty through early education and support for children in need.
"It's easy for companies to post a sympathetic message, use the latest hashtags. Few follow through with substance. This makes American Pacific Mortgage extraordinary. When there was a desperate need for food, basic necessities, and shelter, their caring employees gave generously through their APMCares fund this month! Please thank and support this amazing company with a big heart! Special shout out to our wonderful volunteer and APM employee, Heather Rigano, who made this happen."

Both Kimberly Barry and JC Rogauskas from our Hillsboro, OR, branch have been endlessly dedicated in their support of homeless youth through HomePlate Youth Services. HomePlate supports the positive development of young people experiencing homelessness or housing instability through community building, education, and access to services an
Kimberly’s initial passion to help young adults get a head start in life was driven in part by her daughter, who was a Teen Mom and is now studying to be a Psychologist focusing on youth. Her daughter would often befriend and bring home kids that were in need. Kimberly and her family would help where they could, feeding them and even housing some. JC Rogauskas, a fellow loan officer introduced Kimberly to HomePlate Youth Services and their mission to support young people who are experiencing short-term homelessness or being confronted with limited social-service safety-nets.d resources.
