REALTORS Care Foundation Grant Application for 2009

Every year the REALTORS Care Foundation encourages our real estate boards and their members to choose a charity of their choice to support in their local community.

Shelter is defined as a refuge, haven or protection that provides or improves quality of life from hunger, the elements, physical/psychological abuse, disabilities and illness.

Click here to download the 2009 grant application form. Deadline is June 30, 2009.

The REALTORS Care Foundation receives numerous submissions from a variety of qualified, deserving organizations each year. The Foundation can only make grants as available income permits.

An unfavourable decision from the REALTORS Care Foundation in no way reflects the quality of the organization making the request. We thank you for considering the REALTORS Care Foundation to help support your cause.
