And The Agency Frederick strives to find new ways to make a positive impact on the world at large; that's why they've made charity and philanthropy a core part of the company's values. This year, The Agency Frederick participated in The Agency Global Clean Up Day. This initiative brings together people from all over the world to clean up their local communities.

The effort was led by Brandi Dillon, Managing Partner and Realtor at The Agency Frederick.

Antonio Meza, frequent volunteer, and Realtor with The Agency Frederick, said, “I think it’s great to help our communities, and help clean up! We're not only making them look better, but we're also creating a safer, healthier place for everyone to live. And it's really good that we got everyone out here to help do that.” Frederick’s notable expansion makes it the fifth fastest growing municipality in America!
