April Landlord of the Month

Our April Landlord of the Month, Dorene Wayne, exemplifies what it means to lead with compassion and integrity. Her approach to housing goes far beyond meeting expectations—she consistently shows a deep commitment to supporting both her tenants and her peers. Whether it’s offering guidance, sharing resources, or stepping in when someone needs help, Dorene brings a level of care and intentionality that truly sets her apart.

What stands out most is her genuine dedication to people. Dorene doesn’t just provide housing—she advocates, connects, and uplifts. From helping fellow landlords navigate challenges to going out of her way to support a single mother in need, she demonstrates the kind of character and community-minded spirit we strive to foster in our program. We are proud to recognize her as a model of the impact thoughtful, compassionate landlords can have.
