This past week William T. Dymond, Eddy Moratin & Sandy Hostetter were honored with the Economic and Community Involvement Award for their work on behalf of LIFT Orlando, Inc. at this year’s CREW Orlando Celebration of Champions Gala. This award honors CREW Network members who played a pivotal role in a real estate project that had a significant and measurable positive impact on the community.

LIFT Orlando formed in 2012 in order to leverage the reconstruction of the Citrus Bowl, to bring new life to the surrounding communities, and to ensure the current residents are able to benefit from the positive change. The nonprofit organization brings together business leaders and residents of the neighborhoods surrounding the Citrus Bowl, in a unique collaboration, to help accelerate the community’s transformation. The approach is a holistic one, addressing education, mixed-income housing, community health and wellness, and long-term economic viability – all necessary for a neighborhood to thrive.
