7th Annual Fairway Joy Week — It's More Than a Transaction

Fairway JOY week is back and better than ever! This week marks the 7th anniversary of our ongoing initiative to spread as many good feelings as possible. A large part of our Fairway culture is celebrating JOY through acts of caring, kindness, and happiness within our communities across our #FairwayNation! From the loans we close to the relationships we build — Fairway Wholesale Lending is all about creating an enjoyable experience for our partners! Ready to join the movement?

“Loans are what we do, not who we are.” - Steve Jacobson, CEO/Founder

Introduced in May 2016, #FairwayJoy and #FairwayJOY week were initiatives created to celebrate and cultivate Fairway’s joyfulness. We use this week to focus on Fairway’s outreach and sharing of joy!

• Be extra kind to those in a high customer service role you interact with.
