3 Ways to Give Back as a Realtor

February 21 2022

sentrilock ways to give backThe very essence of being a good REALTOR starts by being a good neighbor. Anyone who is new to the industry can see the notion of giving back does not stop when becoming an agent. As the adage goes, "one voice, one vision" and more channels to do good. There are many ways to participate in community-driven efforts. The following provides three suggestions on ways to do so, and additional ideas around how you can be a part of driving positive impact.

REALTORS® Relief Foundation

Established immediately after the September 11th attacks in 2001, the REALTORS® Relief Foundation (RRF) is a charitable organization dedicated to providing housing-related assistance to victims of disasters. RRF helps restore and rebuild communities affected by wildfires, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, and tornadoes, thanks to the generosity of individual REALTORS®, REALTOR® associations, and affiliated organizations.

The REALTORS® Relief Foundation is supported by companies throughout the industry and individuals. It is a wonderful way to give back and participate in a proven platform that assists those in need. To learn more about additional information about the work and impact of the RRF, check out this article in The Washington Post.

The Beverly Carter Foundation

A 501(c)(3) approved non-profit foundation founded by Carl Cater, The Beverly Carter Foundation drives awareness of agent safety after the murder of Carter's mother during a routine showing in 2014. Their mission is "dedicated to the ideal that every agent goes home safe every day by providing scientifically based research, information, consulting, training, and support at little to no charge to every MLS, association, brokerage, and agent." You can give back by donating or volunteering with this foundation through their website or initiatives.

Participate in Your Association's Non-profit or Community Initiatives

A great way to give back is to get involved with your own team and community efforts! Many associations engage through events with their very own non-profit arm or partner with a local organization. We encourage you to reach out to your association to find out how you can learn about opportunities to support local efforts.
