Draw Your Dream Home | Phoenix Children's Hospital

The Williams Real Estate Company was founded on philanthropy. It started with Phoenix Children’s Hospital and the young patients and families they serve.

In keeping with the core mission of “Growing Our Community...One Home at a Time”, Dan Williams saw an opportunity to bring smiles to the kids at PCH, and to the faces of those who visit their corporate headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Rather than put up just any corporate art in newly opened offices of The Williams Real Estate Company, Dan Williams and Thuy Pham, Owners, decided to make real artists out of the children at Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

They sat bedside and asked the kids to draw their dream houses. These colorful and fun pieces were then hung as original artwork, which adorned the new headquarters of Arizona’s most philanthropic real estate company.

Dan, Thuy and young leukemia cancer patient, Gabriel, 8-years old, put on their germ masks and proceeded to work together with crayons in hand to capture his idea of the perfect family house – kitchen, “Angel's room” and bedrooms for he and his siblings.

Dan and Thuy made a significant donation for all of the artwork created by the kids at Phoenix Children's Hospital - truly making them real commissioned artists!


Phoenix Children's Hospital has provided hope, healing, and the best healthcare for children and families since it was born in 1983. Today, Phoenix Children's is one of the ten largest children's hospitals in the country and provides specialty and sub-specialty inpatient, outpatient, trauma, and emergency care to patients throughout Arizona and other Southwestern states.

1 Million Wishes

Dan Williams, Scottsdale May W.J. "Jim"Lane, Thuy Pham

The audience of 300 community leaders, realtors, volunteers, hospital executives, friends and family gasped when Dan Williams, President of The Williams Real Estate Company surprised the onlookers by pledging $1million dollars to Phoenix Children’s Hospital at the Grand Opening of his new company in April 2009.
“I’ve been looking forward to this moment for a long time, states Dan.

Our new real estate company is going to buck the rend of negative real estate news by action and not just words.

We’ve already donated over a quarter of a million dollars to local charities and our plans are to raise our company donation level to $100,000 per month.

“In a market where consolidation of real estate offices plague the Valley, the new real estate model developed by Dan Williams is creating a positive buzz about their philanthropic foundation of “Growing Our Community,… One Home at a Time.”


Every real estate transaction has a donation built-in for a local Valley charity. In the first 120 days since opening its doors, The Williams Real Estate Company has attracted 25 new Valley agents who share the same vision of doing good while doing their real estate business.

Since creating this concept years ago, Dan Williams own business has sky rocketed “just by giving back”.

“For years, I’ve been asked to move to firms because of my production levels, and I interviewed them. Nothing came close to Dan Williams and his vision for The Williams Real Estate Company.

It’s amazing to blend your business with the community and feel rewarded on both fronts.” States Susan Roberts, Realtor® with TWREC.

Williams plans to hire 50 more Valley agents in 2010 with his new program and to train those agents to build their business with a charity in mind.

Many Arizona charities are starting to hear about the program and meeting with Williams to align with one of their agents.

Recently, The Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center (SARRC) held its annual Foundation Breakfast where Dan Williams and Denise Resnick, Founder, met to learn more about The Williams Real Estate Company’s format to help Valley Charities.

Denise Resnick invited his company to tour their offices and new training facility to learn first-hand about how both of their organizations could benefit by working together.

Dan Williams says, “This is a long term mission that our agents and their clients can embrace every time they work together. Agents are encouraged to select a non-profit organization based on their own personal passion.”

We are in The Light Tower at Phoenix Children's Hospital

After The Williams Real Estate Company made its first donation to The Phoenix Children's Hospital, Dan Williams was taking a tour of PCH, meeting all of the wonderful Doctors and patients.



When he went through the "Light Tower", he saw names like Senator John McCain, The Goldwater family, Jake Plummer, Mike Tyson and huge corporations.


Dan gasped at the size of the donation amount.


Later that day, Dan asked Bob Meyer, President & CEO of Phoenix Children's Hospital, “How did all those wonderful people get on the wall?”


Bob stated that they were Phoenix Children's Hospital's largest donors.

At that moment Dan knew he wanted to be someone who contributed at that level and he told Bob Meyer, jokingly (because it seemed so far out of reach), “Give me 20 years and I will be a donor of that significance!”


5 years later The Williams Real Estate Company is very proud and honored to have its name in the Light Tower at The Phoenix Children's Hospital.

The Beginning...A Love Story

The Williams Real Estate Company was founded in Philanthropy.

The goal of the Company is to donate $100,000 each month to local Arizona Charities through The Williams Community Foundation.

Dan Williams, President & Founder, was led directly into his anticipated destiny at 27 years of age.

This young man seeking to "Make a Difference" had an unsuspecting conversation with a woman inquiring about buying a home in Arizona, as she and her husband were in the midst of their relocation.

Dan stated,"If you buy a home from me, I would like to donate to any children's charity of your choice."

Puzzled,she replied,"Why would you do that?"

Williams explained that over the last few years he has donated his time and a portion of his paycheck to Arizona Charities.

"Since Becoming a Realtor, I've been building a program of giving through my real estate commissions," stated Williams.

Well, would you donate to Phoenix Children's Hospital?" she asked.

Yes, they were one of the organizations that I would like to become involved with! Why do you ask?" Williams inquired.

She then uttered the magic words that launched a mission of passion and profession.

I'll introduce you to my husband...he's the new President and CEO of Phoenix Children's Hospital."

The mission statement is clear and simple.

"Growing Our Community...One Home at a Time."

Now we get to the Love Story. Dan had to complete one more Real Estate Class to obtain his required 24 credits. He was dreading it....but his Dad said, "Hey..you never know...you may meet the woman of your dreams".

And 1 hour later...on August 18th, 2005, Dan met Thuy Pham...and it was all over...Click on the video below for the whole story....
