REALTORS Care®
about their community

REALTORS® play a meaningful role in the communities where they live and work, dedicating their time, resources, and compassion to causes that make a lasting impact. Through volunteering, fundraising, and community outreach, REALTORS® continue to demonstrate a deep commitment to supporting those in need. REALTORS Care® is the guiding principle and national charitable brand that unites these efforts, highlighting the generosity and community spirit of the REALTOR® profession.
Each year, Members of the Ottawa Real Estate Board proudly support the Ontario REALTORS Care® Foundation by raising funds for shelter-related charities across the Ottawa region through initiatives such as the annual charity golf tournament, monthly Member donations, and individual fundraising efforts. These contributions provide critical support to organizations assisting individuals and families facing housing insecurity and other life challenges, including homelessness, addiction, mental or physical illness, domestic or familial abuse, physical disabilities, poverty, and the challenges associated with aging. 
Together, Ottawa REALTORS® are helping build stronger, safer, and more compassionate communities — because everyone deserves access to safe and adequate shelter.

Funds Raised

Thanks to the generosity of OREB’s REALTOR® Members, over $1,000,000 has been donated to local shelter-related charities since 2013.
