The RRAR REALTOR® Giving Network harnesses the incredible giving power of our REALTORS® and real estate partners. Together, our dedicated donors and remarkable nonprofits collaborate to strategically guide gifts to support our neighbors and improve housing solutions in our community.
Christy is one big smile as she sits on a sofa in her new apartment. Being homeless since 2016, Christy stayed in shelters, sometimes with family, wherever she could find a bed. Now that she’s safe and has a door that locks, she’s starting to release the trauma and stress she carried over the past years while suffering from homelessness.
Christy says, “With a home, I finally have peace.”
“I invest in RGN because together REALTORS® can make transformational change in solving the problem of homelessness.”
“Giving my time to the communities in which I serve is important for growth. Using your time to help those in need is fulfilling. If we could all donate a little of our time and money, we would help the Realtor® Giving Network reach and maybe surpass their goals. Our communities are a better place because of RGN! I encourage everyone to volunteer and donate to Realtor® Giving Network whenever they can.”
“We are passionate about helping our neighbors in need. By investing in the Realtor® Giving Network’s Community Grant Program, we can directly support local housing nonprofits on the frontlines of ending homelessness.” Laura and Ken Martin
For REALTORS®, the dynamic market has been positive as home prices have soared due to low inventory and high demand. But the high prices are hurting lower income families.
