The Good Neighbor Program annually honors individuals who exemplify the spirit of community service, committing their time, resources, and energy to better the lives of others.

This year, we shine a spotlight on REALTOR® Kurstin Johnson, who was bestowed the GAAR Good Neighbor Award.

Kurstin has been a beacon of support for the Heart Gallery of New Mexico, a non-profit that champions the cause of hard-to-place foster children. Her contributions extend beyond significant financial support; she also imparts crucial life skills through her financial literacy classes aimed at foster youth on the brink of adulthood.

To date, Kurstin's dedication has empowered over 100 youth, equipping them with the essential tools to craft a stable financial future—managing budgets, saving wisely, and navigating the complexities of debt.

Thank You, Kurstin, for making our community a better place to live.
