Our drive to help others extends beyond our network of individual clients. We’re dedicated to serving our community because we know what it’s like to need support from someone you trust. We’re grateful for the guidance others have given us and the success we have today, and we believe it’s our responsibility to give back however we can.
Below are some of the organizations we support.
Outdoor Adventures for Sacrifice in Service (OASIS)
Melissa is proud to be a part of OASIS, an organization that provides opportunities and support to disabled veterans through various sports activities. Along with Amerks Alumni, Melissa helped to create an ice hockey program that has grown substantially and is enjoyed by many.

Their mission is to continually empower those they serve by helping them maintain and improve their quality of life.
