Help Flint with AmeriFirst Mortgage

As many of you probably know, Flint, Michigan is experiencing a terrible situation right now. The drinking water in Flint, which used to be piped in from Detroit at a great expense, was switched to a local source and treated by a local water treatment facility. The water treatment didn’t work correctly, and caused the water to become tainted and caustic to the pipes in many homes. All of this lead to a dangerous situation: high lead in the drinking water.

Many organizations and individuals are now sending bottled water to the residents of Flint. Money is being collected as well.

As a company that believes in making a meaningful difference in the life of others, AmeriFirst Home Mortgage has pledged $25,000 to the “Moving Michigan Forward” fund to help fix the underlying problems in the Flint infrastructure. This goes beyond sending bottles of water, this will help fix the actual problem for our neighbors.

Now we’re helping the rest of the AmeriFirst Home mortgage team raise even more money to help our neighbors. In fact, we’d love to match (or more!) the donation from AmeriFirst!

Our neighbors are in trouble and need our help. We believe this as Michiganders, as Americans and as fellow humans.

Note: The GoFundMe account is set up by Dan Moyle, AmeriFirst’s Director of Marketing. This is due to the fact that GoFundMe requires a personal account, not a company account. AmeriFirst Home Mortgage will transfer the funds raised into a company bank account to then give to the Moving Michigan Forward fund.
