SPOKANE (September 1, 2023) – The REALTORS® Relief Foundation announced a $500K Grant in disaster relief aid that has been made available to the Spokane communities who have been affected by the wildfires. Funds will be made available to the public to assist with disaster victims’ housing payments as relief and recovery efforts continue.
“Spokane County’s recent wildfires have deeply impacted its communities, and we want to support them [our communities] in any way possible through this difficult time.” said Spokane REALTORS® President Tom Hormel
Since 2001, RRF has disbursed more than $40 million in aid to more than 20,000 families nationwide. The National Association of Realtors® covers all administrative costs, ensuring 100% of all funds collected are distributed directly to disaster relief causes. Since the beginning of 2023, RRF has disbursed over $17 million in relief efforts nationwide.
When a major disaster occurs, RRF mobilizes its outreach efforts and turns to NAR members and other constituents for support. You can learn more about RRF by visiting www.nar.realtor/rrf .
