Giving to charity is a philanthropic act that real estate agent Lacy Burke truly believes in. Proving that he is more than just talk, Burke has been recognized for his annual donations to the Ocean Park Community Center. Each year, he donates as much as five percent of his yearly income to the local community center. In addition to his financial contributions, he also spends time at the center, offering physical and emotional support to the staff and the people they serve in Orange Park.

On most weekends, Southern California residents can find Lacy at the Ocean Park Community Center, handing out lunches to homeless and distressed citizens. He has been quoted as saying, “my job is not just about real estate, it is about building our community, and my volunteer work reflects that goal.” When he can physically be there, interacting with members of the community center, Lacy Burke finds the experience to be both humbling and fulfilling. Even if he lands a big real estate deal, that Saturday of handing out lunches is the best day of his week.

Part of the reason why Burke is so adamant about his continued support of local programs is because he knows there was a time in his own life when finances were very tight. Unlike many of the Ocean Park Community Center members, he was lucky enough to have friends and family who saw him through his rough patches. In this respect, he understands what his fellow citizens are going through, and never looks down on them because of their situation. Life changes so quickly, a person who is wealthy today can be penniless tomorrow.

Donating so much each year is a point of pride for Lacy Burke. He advocates charitable donation to all of his colleagues and associates in Southern California. He knows that if more people were willing to be as generous as he is, there would be much less homeless and hunger in his city. Lacy invites you to come down to the Ocean Park Community Center next weekend, to meet your Los Angeles neighbors and hand out some lunches.
