Giving Back

ConcordRENTS is proud to assist the New Moves Partnership, serving over 285 families in over 100 Concord Communities, since 2011.

New Moves Partnership

The mission of the New Moves Partnership is to provide current homeless families an opportunity for one year of stable housing with the goal that with this program’s support they become traditional rent paying, self-sustaining residents. The New Moves Partnership offers this hand up, not hand out to families who have become homeless due to no fault of their own. They assist families who are newly homeless as a result of job loss, death, health issues and other non-controllable events that could lead to the loss of a home. The New Moves Partnership program works with case managers at various agencies, charities and churches so the families receive the support they need to become support their families again, manage their funds and grow in their careers.
The National Apartment Association recently published an article highlighting this great milestone, learn more by visiting:

Clean the World Foundation

For a Team Building Charity Event, The Business Analytics Team at ConcordRENTS volunteered for the Clean the World Foundation, sorting gently used soap and bath products to be sanitized, repackaged and shipped domestically and internationally to those in need. We are extremely proud of Concord’s outstanding employees and their continued efforts to give back to our community. To learn more about the Clean the World Foundation, click here !



Concord Honors Pulse Victim

On 8/17/2016, we had a memorial tree ceremony to commemorate a Pulse Victim who was a resident of Marbella Pointe. The tree was provided and labor donated on behalf of our landscape vendor, Brightview. Ownership generously provided a lunch for the attendees, covered July’s rent and provided the plaque that is displayed in front of the tree.
Gilberto Silva Menendez “Junito” moved into our community with his mother and grandmother on September 10, 2015. He will be remembered as a resident who was always smiling and full of life. He graduated from Atenas College in Manati, Puerto Rico with an Associate’s Degree in Respiratory Therapy. He moved with his family from Puerto Rico to Florida in 2010 in search of new opportunities.


Gilberto will be remembered for his love of dance, imitating famous artists and making everyone around him smile and laugh. He was always the life of any party! Some of his goals were to travel the world, live a fulfilled life with the people he loved and follow his love for the arts. His dream was to become famous one day! As a community, we have been greatly impacted by this loss and we will continue to remember Junito and smile as he would want us to.

Concord Rents ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

August is the month to recognize and stand up against ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. ALS is a very progressive neurodegenerative disease that attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Over 5,600 people in the United States are diagnosed with ALS every year and as many as 30,000 Americans can have ALS at any given time.
Last August, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge went viral across various social media platforms as people from all walks of life participated by dumping buckets of ice water on themselves, challenging their friends to do the same. When someone was tagged and received a challenge from his or her friend, they had 24 hours to post a video and challenge 3 more friends or forfeit by way of a charitable donation to the ALS Foundation… many people choosing to do both. Over 2.4 million people have been tagged in ALS Ice Bucket Challenge videos circulating Facebook, alone.


Well, the challenge is back! On August 1st, the ALS Association relaunched the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge for 2015. The message is simple:
#EveryAugustUntilACure is the official hashtag of the ALS Association. Last year, the Ice Bucket Challenge raised over $100 million dollars for the ALS Association.
Although the origins of the idea of dumping ice water on one’s head are vague, the ALS Association’s message could not be any clearer. So, Concord Rents challenges you to participate in this year’s ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and donate towards this amazing cause.
