Philanthropist Luke Buchanan Volunteers Across the Country

It is clear, when you look at his life, that Luke Buchanan has always been very serious about reaching out to help those in need. Even during his earliest years, Luke Buchanan would take time out from his studies to spend time volunteering, and it has continued on into adulthood.

Luke Buchanan initially became interested in outreach when he spent time working with the Spanish Education Development Center. This center, based in Washington DC, provides daycare for underprivileged children. Education, and getting an early start, is such an integral part of growing up, and Luke Buchanan wants to make sure that each and every person, regardless of income, is able to take advantage of our great education system.

The desire to keep volunteering his time only grew as Luke Buchanan became older. When Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005, Luke Buchanan participated in the rebuilding of neighborhoods by working with Habitat for Humanity, an organization that builds new homes for those who have lost their own. It was perhaps during this time that Luke Buchanan became interested in real estate.

But, Luke Buchanan knows that an education and a home are nothing if there is not a healthy planet to live on. This is why he spent time working with Event 350 while he was in New Orleans going to school at Tulane University. Event 350's overall mission is to lower the atmosphere's carbon count to 350 ppm.

Now, Luke Buchanan still volunteers his time in his home city of Washington DC, but he also helps people in another way by helping them buy a new home. This well-respected real estate agent is dedicated to helping those in need as well as his clients.
