What a great project that will make a lasting impact for so many.

Today we celebrate all women, but especially those who have made it possible for women-founded companies like ours not only to exist but also to thrive. We are grateful for the path that has been paved and endevour to pay it forward to create more opportunities for women. As our founder, Laura Rapaport, highlighted below, we have made a lot of progress to get to this point but our work is not done. #internationalwomensday #internationalwomensday2024 #femaleceo #womenownedbusiness #commercialrealestate #crefinance

Hello beautiful people! A few months ago, we received messages from individuals expressing their admiration for our efforts within Project MEND , particularly our work supporting women in low-income communities.

They also expressed interest in receiving reminders to make these contributions regularly over the long term.

It is #WomenInConstruction Week and we have SO much to celebrate! This years WIC Week revolves around the theme of “Keys to the Future.” Opportunities for women truly are key to the future of construction. Did you know❔ 🚧There were 1.29 million women working in the US Construction industry in 2023. This number has been steadily increasing and is up by over 60% since 2012! 🚧On average, women in construction earn almost as much as men, at about 99.1%. 🚧At 11.4%, the number of women in PA's construction workforce is higher than that of our neighboring states DE, NJ, NY, OH, and WV. 🚧About 13% of construction companies are owned by women. As a Certified Woman Business Enterprise and Women Owned Construction Company, JEM's culture of diversity is not distinct from enhancing overall quality, but is integral to achieving it. HAPPY WIC WEEK! #WICweek #JEMGroup #womeninconstruction

What We're Celebrating... Women's History Month: How Women Have Been Shaping Cities and Empowering Communities This Women's History Month, &Access pays tribute to the women who have played a pivotal role in urban planning and development. From Jane Jacobs' advocacy for vibrant, community-driven spaces to Tamika L. Butler's commitment to equitable urban mobility, these visionaries have championed inclusivity, sustainability, and social justice. Figures like Dr. June Manning Thomas and Toni Griffin have laid the groundwork for cities like Detroit to embrace renewal with equity at their core. Pioneers such as Dolores Hayden and Lily Yeh have reimagined our living spaces and infused art into community revitalization. Stephanie Meeks and Ananya Roy have, respectively, underscored the importance of historical preservation and critiqued urban inequality, urging a reevaluation of how our cities serve their diverse populations. Their collective contributions continue to inspire a more inclusive approach to urban planning, celebrating the richness of diverse perspectives in crafting spaces that truly reflect and accommodate the needs of all community members. Join us in honoring their legacies and explore more about their creativity, and resilience in this transformative work. #WomensHistoryMonth #UrbanPlanning #CommunityDevelopment #EquityAndAccess #InclusiveCities #LegacyOfInnovation

Should we focus a week on Women in Construction or dedicate more time to helping break misconceptions that construction career paths are for men only?
