Emerald Creek Capital's Mark Bahiri on the Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation

Since founding Emerald Creek Capital in 2009, my business partner Mark Penna and I have received immense gratification from donating to various charitable causes and organizations. Desiring to do even more to help others achieve their dreams, we started the Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation.

In short, the Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation targets young students who excel in their studies. The Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation provides those students with the financial support they need, offering up to $5,000 toward higher education. Every year, we look forward to helping high school seniors focus more on learning and less on the financial burden that often accompanies educational requirements.

Mark Penna and I act as Co-Chairmen of the Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation. In addition to our Foundation duties, Mark and I preside over Emerald Creek Capital, analyzing changing market conditions and looking for new commercial real estate financing opportunities. Emerald Creek Capital typically closes loans within one to two weeks, enabling clients to proceed with other business matters, secure in the knowledge that they received the financing they needed.

I am grateful that Emerald Creek Capital's success has allowed us to donate time and resources to causes as worthy as the Emerald Creek Scholarship Foundation.
