The REALTOR® Care Day Grant, offered by the Columbus REALTORS® Foundation, supports local realty associations with up to $500 in matching funds for service projects. Since its inception in 2005, this initiative has mobilized hundreds of volunteers, contributing over $676,000 towards community improvements in central Ohio. With a mission to enhance the real estate landscape and advocate for affordable housing, the foundation plays a vital role in fostering healthy communities through dedicated service and collaboration.
Columbus REALTORS® Foundation
The Columbus REALTORS® Foundation (CRF) is the charitable arm of the 9,500+ members of the Columbus REALTORS® and central Ohio real estate community.
Formed in 1991 as a donor-advised fund, the CRF now operates as its own nonprofit public charity, investing over $600,000 in the community since 2008, emerging as one of the strongest local REALTOR® Foundations in the country.
As strong advocates of affordable housing in healthy communities, the CRF and its donors seek to be an influential partner for local nonprofit and government housing entities.
Started in 2005, REALTOR® Care Day is an annual day of service to the communities in which REALTORS® live, work and raise families.
In the last 19 years, REALTOR® Care Day has contributed $676,000 in improvements and repairs and hundreds of hours of service to residents and communities around central Ohio.
Although REALTORS® donate time and talent to their communities throughout the year, this one-day event focuses the energy of hundreds of volunteers in areas all over the central Ohio area. With careful planning, preparation and the dedication of many volunteers, it's amazing how much can be accomplished in one day!
