Mr. Jordon is a respected leader in the community. He currently serves on several boards including:

Following his passion for developing affordable housing in the community, JDC has purchased and renovated 9 residential properties and worked with the Greenville Housing Authority to make them available for affordable rentals to large families. JDC currently owns and manages these properties. JDC also worked with Community Works as a funding partner on a couple of the properties to secure the necessary funds for renovation and has since paid back those funds. In addition, a local work force was used in the renovation of all of the properties.

Mr. Jordon understands the heartbeat of business, knows the importance of developing mutually beneficial partnerships, and is committed to serving the Greenville community. He believes in not only hard work and commitment for business success but also hard work for the benefit of uplifting those around him and those that could use a helping hand.
