The CREB® REALTOR® Community Foundation has a robust strategy that responds to community need. We maximize the potential of every contribution as we work to help tackle complex needs around housing and shelter for people that need it most.
The Foundation is making this happen with three grant programs designed to create new housing, keep people housed and improve housing quality.
Legacy Grants – create new housing (2021 application closed)
A Legacy Grant is the largest and most substantial investment from CREB® REALTOR® Community Foundation. Funding from this giving stream is designed to make a substantial impact and create new housing and shelter options in the community.
One grant between $100,000 and $1 million will be awarded as either a one-time contribution, or through a multi-year funding partnership.
Community Grants – keep people housed (Applications open until Oct. 1, 2021)
A Community Grant from CREB® REALTOR® Community Foundation is designed to fund major repairs or renovations to existing housing and/or shelter supply, with the purpose of keeping people housed in the community.
There are three $25,000 Community Grants available in 2021 for a total of $75,000.
Transformation Grants – improve housing quality (Applications open until Oct. 1, 2021)
A Transformation Grant from CREB® REALTOR® Community Foundation provides funding for minor renovation projects to existing infrastructure, with the purpose of improving housing quality for the community’s most vulnerable.
