Eric Packer, with J.Borstell Real Estate, Launches the “Make a Difference” Program to Support Local Food Pantries Tewksbury, MA — December 5, 2025 — J.Borstell Commercial Real Estate is proud to announce the launch of Eric’s “Make A Difference” Program, aligned with the upcoming holidays. It is a charitable initiative through which 5% of all net commissions and fees earned by Eric Packer will be donated to local food pantries across the region. “Every successful transaction is an opportunity to help someone else,” said Eric Packer, Commercial Real Estate Advisor with J.Borstell. “Food insecurity continues to affect families and seniors in the communities we serve and this program is a simple way to make a real difference while doing the work I love.” This Program reflects J.Borstell’s long-standing commitment to community involvement and social responsibility. By supporting regional food pantries, the program aims to help provide meals, nourishment, and hope to individuals and families during these challenging times. Jeffrey Borstell, Principal of J.Borstell Commercial Real Estate, praised the initiative: “We’re proud to support Eric’s vision to give back through his professional success. His leadership and compassion align with our company’s core values — to build relationships that strengthen both business and community.” Patrick Hermans, Principal of J.Borstell, added, “The Make a Difference Program is more than a donation effort — it’s a reflection of our belief that strong local relationships create stronger communities.” Since 1981, J.Borstell Commercial Real Estate has been a family-owned firm focused on development, marketing, and brokerage of commercial, residential, and senior-housing properties throughout Massachusetts and New England. For more information about the “Make A Difference” Program or to learn how your transaction can help support local families in need, contact Eric Packer at 617 285 6154 or email him at epacker@JBorstell.c
