Realtor Jamie Waller uses her knowledge and skills to help people in Charlottesville and beyond with either the sale of their current home or by leading the search for their next dream home. But when she’s not enthusiastically assisting buyers and sellers, she spends her time giving back to the community in a plethora of other ways.
How do you individually give back to the community?
I’m passionate about partnering with a diverse group of community organizations that make a real difference. Supporting Oakland School through their “Oaktoberfest” is always a highlight of the fall, raising crucial funds and awareness for this special school.
Through a client, I was introduced to Child Health Partnership, which provides vital at-home support to babies, young children, and their families, promoting health, stability, and well-being in our community. For 8 years, our family has been involved with McIntire Little League, where my son plays, and it’s been a joy to manage their social media and support the league’s growth.
Additionally, I’ve proudly sponsored Meals on Wheels’ “Music for Meals” event for several years, helping to raise funds for their mission. This year, I was also thrilled to support the Charlottesville Free Clinic’s incredible fundraiser, which featured an unforgettable procession through the downtown mall and a phenomenal concert.
Do you volunteer as a family?
I’m grateful that my children attend a school that emphasizes the importance of giving back, requiring participation in four forms of service: community, church, school, and home. Two of their favorite places to volunteer are the food pantry and baking for the soup kitchen, where they truly enjoy supporting those in need and learning the value of compassion and service.
Do you have any future plans for other community service activities or financial donations?
My family and I hope to continue to support various organizations locally and beyond.
Why is community service important to you?
I’m fortunate to be connected with so many wonderful people throughout the community. These relationships have introduced me to countless opportunities to give back and make a positive impact. My goal is to continue expanding those efforts, both personally and as a family, to support our area in even more meaningful ways.
