Our President Kenneth Jones

Let me start by telling you how honored I am to be the President of the Mortgage Banker’s Association of Jacksonville. I am very excited with what the future holds for our Association and the fact that I get to follow very successful recent years despite some of the turmoil our industry has seen. This year I will focus on a few specific items for our Association. First, I would like to provide educational, valuable and fun luncheon events for our members. Secondly, I would like to increase our annual donation contribution to the Ronald McDonald House with your support. Lastly, I would like to focus on our community by offering our local residents and customer’s with education about our industry and how we can help them in ways they may not have known otherwise.

For the 2009-2010 fiscal year we have decided to move our Luncheon’s to Maggiano’s Little Italy, located in the St. Johns Town Center at 10367 Midtown Parkway, Jacksonville, FL, 32246. We will have a more extensive menu, a quiet private dining room, and beautiful atmosphere all at no extra cost from last year. We will be offering multiple Luncheon events throughout the year, as well as a few evening social events including a Christmas Party we will co-host with the FAMB of Jacksonville. Please keep an eye on our calendar to see our next event!

Another focus of the Association will be our contributions to the Ronald McDonald House. We will host 4 events that will range of Cooking Dinner for the guests to helping with the landscaping in the spring! Please make sure you check out our calendar for updates on those events as well.
 

And finally, the Association is going to invest our time, knowledge, and service to help our community in as many ways as possible. We want the people of our city to be educated in what we do and what we can do for them. There are many programs available to them as existing or potential homebuyers and we would like to help educate and communicate those things to our community.
 

With your support in our Association we can do great things for our industry, community and state. We have an incredible Association Board with a wealth of knowledge varying across all spectrums of Mortgage Banking. We are eager and looking forward to providing for our members and our industry. Thank you for allowing me to serve you as the President of the Mortgage Banker’s Association of Jacksonville.
