Recent News & Activity
Recent developments and announcements
The foundation was established following a significant liquidity event in February 2022, when ERGS—the family-owned real estate development and property management company—sold a majority of its portfolio in what was recorded as the largest apartment deal in Nevada's history. The Peek family earmarked a substantial portion of the proceeds from this transaction to fund the foundation.
