LINTHICUM, MD, March 23, 2018— NFM Lending is celebrating the two-year anniversary of its NFM Salute program. They honored their first NFM Salute on March 23, 2016.

NFM Salute is an initiative dedicated to recognizing the brave men and women who have fought and continue to fight for our freedom and our country. Every month, a nominated military service member or Veteran is chosen to be honored as the “Salute of the Month.” A brief biography and information about the Salute’s service is featured on both the website and NFM Lending’s social media. The Salute receives a gift and a donation is made by NFM Lending on behalf of the monthly Salute to one of three chosen non-profits: Platoon 22, AnySoldier, or the Gary Sinise Foundation. Since the start of the NFM Salute initiative, NFM Lending has donated over $50,000 to these military focused charities.

“Two years has flown by,” said Greg Sher, NFM’s Chief Business Development Officer. “The NFM Salute has fulfilled its promise to honor those who have and continue to serve our country. I just love reading the stories of our honorees and always look forward to the next one.”

LINTHICUM, MD, February 1, 2017— NFM Lending is pleased to honor Lea Everette as the NFM Salute for February 2017.

Everette is a Technical Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. She is an F-22 Avionics Systems Maintainer at Langley Air Force Base in Hampton, VA, and has been a member of the Air Force for nine years. She is a wife and a mother to four daughters and two dogs, and has traveled everywhere from California to Japan during her service.

“It’s been an honor and a privilege to maintain this 5th Generation Weapons system and serve my country,” said Everette.

Everette was nominated by her father, Grafton Davis.

“Lea has always strived to do her best, and she has always been a high achiever,” said Davis. “In elementary school, she was one of a few students chosen to attend Space Camp in Florida. I think that was when she decided on an AERO career. But rather than select a NASA career, she decided to join the Air Force and ROTC. She was at the top of her class in leadership school, and before graduation from high school she signed up for the U.S. Air Force (USAF). And it’s been the USAF since. She also is involved with an organization that helps Veterans upon return. She loves ocean fishing too, and has caught some real trophy-size fish!”

NFM Salutes is an initiative in which one military member or Veteran is chosen each month to be honored as the “Salute of the Month.” Salutes are chosen from nominations on the NFM Salute website, www.nfmsalute.com.

Selected NFM Salutes may choose from one of the following four non-profits: Platoon 22, AnySoldier, Soldier’s Wish, and the Gary Sinise Foundation. NFM looks forward to the opportunity to continue to honor military and Veterans through the NFM Salute initiative.

LINTHICUM, MD, March 23, 2016— NFM Lending is pleased to launch its NFM Salute initiative by honoring the first NFM Salute, Coulter C. Houchens, Sr., father of current NFM Lending employee, Jeanette Salamon.

“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.”

Military and veteran causes are important to NFM Lending. For the past eight years, NFM Lending has held a Support Our Troops Drive, collecting items for care packages to send to U.S. troops overseas. In addition to employees and employee family members who are active military or veterans, several members of NFM’s executive team are veterans, including Jason Ponsonby, Director of Sales, who served in the United States Air Force for nine years.

“The NFM Salutes program is another great addition to the longstanding commitment to community involvement at NFM Lending,” said Ponsonby. “We help active military members and veterans each day with home ownership, and now will also be able to honor the service, sacrifice, and courage of the NFM Salute recipients. It is an honor to have Coulter Houchens, Sr. as the first recipient of a NFM Salute.  His service during World War II is an incredible example of sacrifice and courage. Thank you to Coulter, and all members of the armed forces, and veterans, for your commitment to service in protecting our country.”
