BIG Gratitude from Ontario REALTORS® CARE Foundation, ORCF

April 10, 2026

Did you know that as an Ontario REALTOR®, you not only have your very own charitable Foundation – you’re also part of a collective movement that gives back every single month?

Through the Ontario REALTOR Care® Foundation’s (ORCF) Every REALTOR® Campaign (ERC), Member Boards and Associations across Ontario contribute between $1 and $4 per member, per month through dues. While each individual contribution may seem small, the collective impact is powerful. Nearly 100,000 REALTORS® across Ontario are coming together to turn everyday contributions into meaningful, lasting change in the communities where they live and work.

These contributions stay within the communities they come from, supporting local shelter and food insecurity initiatives and helping those who need it most.

A special thank you to the following Member Boards and Associations that have increased their ERC contribution to $3 or $4 per member, per month – demonstrating an even deeper commitment to their communities:

  • Central Lakes Association of REALTORS® 
  • Kingston and Area Real Estate Association
  • London and St. Thomas Association of REALTORS®
  • Niagara Association of REALTORS®
  • OnePoint Association of REALTORS® 
  • Sarnia Lambton Association of REALTORS®; and, 
  • Timmins, Cochrane, and Timiskaming Districts Association of REALTORS® 

The Ontario REALTORS Care® Foundation extends its sincere thanks to all Member Boards and Associations who supported this increase over the past year. Your leadership is helping to grow this collective impact across the province. Together, we are building momentum in support of shelter and food insecurity initiatives across Ontario.

With the inclusion of the ERC, a total of $1.9 million was granted in 2025 to more than 200 shelter and food insecurity organizations across Ontario. To date, over $22 million has been invested in local community initiatives – supporting the very communities Ontario REALTORS® are proud to call home.

Thank you, Ontario REALTORS®, for being part of something bigger.
