Congrats to our friend Rocket on his Ted Talk "Vermont: The Value of Hardship" for TEDx Hartland Hill's series, The Art of Living! What a refreshing take on the inherent BENEFITS of hardship: innovation, accountability, and cooperation - these are KEY qualities of Vermont living! Here at BRIC in Springfield, we're acutely and continuously aware of the myriad of challenges that rural life presents in the face of our community development efforts. If we're being honest, the list of obstacles and setbacks we encounter day to day often feels endless - like pushing a boulder up hill (both ways!) in the snow. Anyone boots on the ground doing this type of work knows it's not for the faint of heart, and in fact we often joke that you have to be a certain sort of glutton for punishment in order to ever actually make any progress. We know what we're doing is difficult, and that we're pushing against the odds with the things we're trying to accomplish - and somehow this awareness actually BOLSTERS our determination. The spirit of resilience and ingenuity is STRONG in Vermont. It's an inherent part of our identity. Whether it's snowstorms, early frosts, catastrophic flooding, workforce and housing shortages, food insecurity, busted leaking pipes - whatever the hurdle, Vermonters SHOW UP. We imagine possibilities, we work together, and we GET SHIT DONE. In spite of the challenges, there's nowhere we'd rather be! We believe in the power of our communities, we root for the underdog, and we WILL prevail. Thanks for the food for thought, Rocket! And for all that you're doing to help affect positive change here in Vermont!

As a Colorado company, we feel a strong responsibility to give back to the communities we serve. ✨ For years we’ve partnered with Greenhouse Scholars and Salute Colorado, two incredible organizations that create opportunities and provide resources for low-income students to excel into community leaders, and assist veterans with their transition to civilian life with career mentoring and networking opportunities. We believe homeownership builds stronger communities, and is directly linked to upward social mobility. That’s why we created 8zKeys4Life, an initiative that provides grants to first-time buyers and educates them about the intricacies of owning a home. While giving back to our community is a company priority, our agents go above and beyond, sponsoring events or volunteering in their own local communities and schools.
