We are also proud to announce the hiring of three new employees that we have added to our hardworking staff.

Casey is our newest addition to our IRA Department. Natalie Rodriguez is a California native who has lived in Albuquerque for eight years now. Natalie has nine years experience in the escrow and title businesses and has become an outstanding addition to our Escrow Servicing Department. Sandra McBride is also a California native who is now working full-time as a Customer Service Representative. She is attending school part time to get a bachelor’s degree in Business.

Last, we have re-launched our website, www.sunwesttrust.com, in a joint effort with Best Online Results. Best Online Results is a company that specializes in web optimization and internet PR. With the new site, we hope to strengthen our online presence by transitioning to overcome the traditional Dot Com barrier and become more of a Dot Community that will provide more of an interactive Hub for our clients.

On Thursday July 10, Sunwest Trust, Inc. hosted a Title Company Appreciation Reception at the Embassy Suites in Albuquerque. The cost of admission to the reception was a non-perishable food item to be donated to the Albuquerque Area Firefighters Random Acts Program. The program’s mission is to give back to the community by providing “Random Acts” of kindness to those who need a helping hand. The program accepts many other kinds of donations beside non-perishable food items, such as washing machines, dish washers, tools, furniture, etc. The items are collected by the Random Acts program and distributed to families in need. Some of the families have had all of their belongings lost in fires, but some are just families going through tough times.

Sunwest Trust, with the help of employees from Albuquerque area title companies raised several hundred dollars worth of non-perishable food items for the program. Attendees of the reception enjoyed Hors dóeurvres, cocktails and the chance to win door prizes, which included a portable DVD player, iPods and professional car detailing by Haute Details of Albuquerque.

Terry White, CEO of Sunwest Trust, was pleased with the turnout, but hopes to make the next event even better. If you want to help out the Random Acts Program, you can contact Michael Trujillo at trujillo4jesus@yahoo.com.
