Brown Announced as Award Recipient During January 25th Installation & Awards Reception
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (Jan. 29, 2024) – During the annual Installation & Awards Reception, Greater Chattanooga Realtors® presented the Good Neighbor Award to Realtor® Darlene Brown. The award was established to honor a Realtor for their exceptional contributions to their community through volunteer work within the year, or consecutive years, preceding the presentation of the award.
Brown and her brokerage (Real Estate Partners) support various charities in our community, including Habitat for Humanity, Snack Packs, Mckamey Animal Center, and the Back to School Bash for Hamilton County. Brown was instrumental in achieving something never done until this past December – ensuring that every veteran’s grave at Chattanooga National Cemetery had a wreath on it.
Darlene has a love for local community service. She has a father and brother buried at the National Cemetery. This past year, Darlene challenged her company, her friends, her peers, her clients, her loved ones, and our local Association to participate in Wreaths Across Chattanooga. Through a deep respect for her they all came together and raised $35,330. And that’s just last year. Since 2021, Darlene has helped raise a total of nearly $100,000 for Wreaths Across Chattanooga.
“What an honor it is to receive this award from my peers,” said Darlene Brown. “Wreaths Across Chattanooga is an organization near and dear to my heart, and giving back to those who have given so much to us is a small thing that we all can do. Thank you all so much,” said Brown
