The Realtors Relief Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, says the money will “assist with disaster victims’ housing payments as relief and recovery efforts continue.”

CHICAGO – The Realtors® Relief Foundation (RRF)is making $1.5 million in disaster relief available to Hawaii Realtors® in support of the Realtors Association of Maui after fires recently devastated communities on the Hawaiian island of Maui.

The funds will help pay disaster victims’ housing payments as relief and recovery efforts continue.

“Maui’s recent wildfires have deeply impacted its residents, and we stand by them during this challenging time,” says RRF President Mike McGrew. “RRF grants aim to ease the path towards recovery, offering tangible aid to those rebuilding their lives. As real estate agents, we recognize that unity and community spirit are invaluable, especially when facing such trying circumstances.”

RF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides financial housing assistance to the public after disasters. In its 20 years of existence, RRF distributed more than $40 million in aid to 20,000-plus families. RRF is supported by the Realtor organization family, along with local and state Realtor association partners. NAR covers all administrative costs and 100% of donations go to disaster relief.
