Today the Senior Lending Network kicks off their Senior Independent Living Month which will run from May 15 through June 15. All mortgage originators affiliated with the Senior Lending Network are joining forces in a series of events to promote social responsibility and ethical treatment of seniors and discuss the positive benefits of reverse mortgages.

As part of Senior Independent Living Month, the Senior Lending Network and the National Association of Home Builders are joining forces with Rebuilding Together New Orleans to rebuild a home damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Volunteers from NAHB’s 50+ Housing Council will participate in a two-day community service project May 17-18 to help rebuild the home of displaced owners Hazel Tate, age 87, and Hilda Levy, age 67. On May 18, the three groups will host a media event featuring your favorite reverse mortgage spokesman Robert Wagner, spokesperson for the Senior Lending Network, to meet the homeowners and provide guided tours of the home and show its progress to date.

Since the overall goal of Senior Independent Living Month is to promote social responsibility, ethical treatment of seniors, and discuss the positive benefits of reverse mortgages, the Senior Lending Network is offering a FREE training session for RMD readers. The session will cover tips on how to generate positive press in the media and help grow your business. Below are just a few of the things that will be covered:

• How to issue a press release to the wires
• Tips for reaching out to local media, identifying prospective media contacts
• Tips for creating community related campaigns in your area for seniors
