Demonstrating a belief in the value of education, the agents and staff from Prudential California Realty’s Santa Ynez Valley office recently awarded a scholarship to Shelby Rivera, a senior at Santa Ynez Union High School. The scholarship, which is valued at $250, was given to Rivera in recognition of her scholastic achievements.

“I can’t imagine a better way to serve the community than by providing a local high school student with a chance to pursue their dreams,” comments Kyle Kemp, manager of Prudential’s Santa Ynez Valley office. “The willingness of our agents and employees to serve the communities where they live and work is a source of pride to me.”

Kemp noted that the agents in his office have a talent for helping people identify what must be done to accomplish their goals and a strong belief in the value of self-improvement. He added that, “Helping a buyer purchase their dream home or helping a seller get a high sale price requires a great deal of knowledge, finesse and preparation. Our agents never miss an opportunity to refine their skills, increase their understanding of real estate or attend one of our company’s training courses.”

As a strategy for ensuring the continuing satisfaction of the company’s buyers and sellers, Prudential provides its agents with access to a comprehensive series of real estate classes led by some of the industry’s foremost professionals. The company also maintains an ongoing mentor program and conducts a number of informational panels each year, which bring experts together to share ideas and discuss new strategies for serving their clients.

Prudential works to make a positive impact on the community through the efforts and causes sponsored by The Charitable Foundation. Backed by the dedicated agents at Prudential, The Charitable Foundation supports local organizations that promote health, education, community, and the environment.
