Teaming Up for Charity: Giving Back at Patterson-Schwartz

At Patterson-Schwartz, we embrace the philosophy that being a good neighbor is more than just giving money to a worthy cause – it’s about developing and investing in the community in which we live and do business. That’s why our sales associates and employees give countless hours of their time to charitable causes.

In support of this culture of giving back, Patterson-Schwartz donates a portion of the proceeds from every real estate transaction to the PSA Foundation. Since its inception in 2001, the PSA Foundation has donated nearly $1.4 Million to local charities and organizations that are close to the hearts of the PSA family of sales associates and employees.

What does it mean to partner with a company that shares your values on charitable giving?

“‘We Are Local’ is embedded in the core of Patterson-Schwartz Real Estate’s investment in the local community. When I received the call that The Hadley Group was going to be the main event sponsor for the First State Half Marathon, I knew beyond a doubt that [PSA] would support my team, the cause, and the community. Already looking forward to the next race.”Brian Hadley, PSA Hockessin sales team

Patterson-Schwartz will be back running along side Brian and The Hadley Group for the second annual First State Half Marathon and 10k planned for Saturday, March 25th 2023. Visit the event page for more information.


“The Delmarva Aces North Baseball Team, a local little league program that my grandson is a part of, lived a dream and had the time of their lives in part because of PSA’s support. The parents told me their travel team had so much fun and made so many memories thanks to the donations from their sponsors.”Kelley Quinn, PSA Brandywine support team

From supporting local little league teams to organizing coat drives, Kelley and her Brandywine office colleagues are making a difference in the community beyond assisting with real estate needs. Follow the Brandywine office Facebook page to learn more.

Their generosity has incentivized me to be more active in my community!”Dave Watlington, PSA Middletown management team
