RRAR 'Housing Heros' Donate $4000 to Help Family Displaced by Tornado
On October 7th the Housing Opportunity committee of the Raleigh Regional Association of REALTORS® hosts a “Be A Housing Hero” seminar each year and presents a monetary award to a local group that is supporting affordable housing in our area. This year, the committee gave $4,000 to the Salvation Army to be used for a family who was displaced by the Tornado last Fall. Insurance did not take care of all repairs needed to their home and they are still not living there. It is our hope that with this donation, they will be able to return home.
