Mack Real Estate Group, LLC (MREG), a vertically integrated, institutional real estate developer, operator, investor and lender, is expanding its relationship with Project Destined, a leading social impact platform that provides training in financial literacy, entrepreneurship and real estate.
“We are delighted to partner once again with Project Destined to further support and empower students from underrepresented communities through training in the fundamentals of real estate and professional development. There is no substitute for direct, hands-on experience with mentors active in the profession,” said Richard Mack, CEO of MREG. “We have been truly impressed by both the enthusiasm of the students and the leadership of Project Destined. Over the last two years the Project Destined program has become a staple of our engagement efforts at Mack Real Estate Group, with mentors, speakers and judges from across our equity, credit and development teams committing their time to help educate and prepare the next generation of real estate leaders.”
Beginning in 2021, Mack Real Estate Group partnered with Project Destined in the New York area to provide participants with mentors from across MREG’s debt, equity and development platforms. Over the last two years MREG has sponsored four student teams representing more than 50 Project Destined participants.
“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Mack Real Estate Group to grow our work in the New York City market,” said Cedric Bobo, co-founder of Project Destined. “The MREG team has invested incredible resources to provide this group of students with mentoring, exposure and networking opportunities. We are proud to partner to prepare these students for potential careers in real estate.”
