LINTHICUM, MD, March 22, 2018— NFM Lending will sponsor the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Baltimore’s (RMHCB) 7th annual Red Shoe Shuffle 5k Run and Walk. The event will take place on Sunday, April 8, 2018.

Each year, a group of NFM Lending employees and their family members participate in the Shuffle, either as runners, or as volunteers. This will be NFM Lending’s seventh consecutive year sponsoring this event.

The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Baltimore is an organization that provides a cost-free home away from home for seriously ill children and their families while undergoing treatment. They also work with and help fund programs in the local area that directly improve the well-being of children. Since 1982, the RMHCB has housed more than 35,000 families from not only around the country, but the world. Money raised from events like the Red Shoe Shuffle have allowed the RMHCB to start constructing an even larger facility to increase the number of families they are able to house every day.

“Once again, NFM Lending is proud to support Ronald McDonald House Charities of Baltimore,” said Gene DiPaula, Director of Marketing at NFM Lending. “The work they do with the children and families in our community makes a tremendous impact. The Red Shoe Shuffle is a fantastic event that NFM loves to participate in. Not only is NFM a corporate sponsor, but our employees love walking or running in the race and enjoy the feeling that they are making a difference in their community through this great philanthropic organization.”

NFM Lending is proud to support many local charities and nonprofits through sponsorship and volunteer work. NFM has also been involved in charitable efforts with St. Jude, Platoon 22, John Hopkins Medicine, AnySoldier, JAFCO, The Maryland Food Bank, The Gary Sinise Foundation, and the SPCA.

He is the hardest worker I know and I’m just so proud of him and all that he has accomplished in his career with the Air Force.”

LINTHICUM, MD, April 4, 2016— NFM Lending is pleased to honor Danny Farrar as the NFM Salute for April 2016.

Robert (Danny) Farrar, III, went into the Army straight out of High school joining up as an infantryman. His tenure in the Army saw him take the first search and rescue team into the Pentagon on 9-11, and a  combat tour in Iraq from 2005-2006. Farrar went from being homeless and dealing with depression, to building SoldierFit and being selected to the 2013 “Top 40 under 40 V.I.P” by The Daily Record, as well as one of the Top 5 Men’s Health Ultimate Guys.  SoldierFit is a gym based out of Frederick MD, which started as one sub-let location and has since grown to 3 stand-alone facilities with 3,000 members and 50 employees.

Recently, he co-founded Platoon 22, a 501(c) that combats veteran suicides. His goal is to revitalize the American dream and remind his fellow Americans no other soil on earth is more fertile for their dreams then America’s. Farrar was nominated by Jeremy Poling, a Mortgage Loan Originator at NFM Lending, who volunteers at Platoon 22.

“Over the last few years, I have watched this young man work hard to start the work in motion at Platoon 22,” said Poling. “As a husband, father, student, business owner, advocate, and friend he spends each day trying to help everyone around him with the last thought in mind on himself. His story is raw, with a past that is difficult to understand unless you spend time and talk to him. His service to our country, combined with the sacrifices he continues to make for our community, is unmatched in my eyes. I am proud to call him a friend.”

“Our entire family is thrilled that my Daddy has been chosen as the first honoree for the NFM Salutes Campaign!” said Salamon. “He exhibits so much honor and pride in having served in WWII, and other than his family, it is his military service that he is proudest of.  He remains to this day a silent hero, never boastful, but always remembering and giving the honor to the ‘boys’ he served with, who lost their lives in WWII, as being the real heroes. Thank you, NFM, for recognizing my Daddy, Coulter Christian Houchens, Sr., a man who served our country proudly.”
