The organization teaches the public how to buy a home in its quarterly Home Buying 101 class held at 4927 Hwy 493 Meridian.

It also supports local organizations such as the Boys & Girls Club, Francis Davidson Center for Homelessness, Care Lodge, Habitat for Humanity, Angel Tree and Hope Village.

East Mississippi REALTORS also partners to help agencies such as MUTEH provide homes for those at risk of homelessness.
