Why we love the RLP Shelter Foundation

Why we love the RLP Shelter Foundation

Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company that has it's own charitable foundation, the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation. The Shelter Foundation is a national organisation that benefits local shelters for women and children escaping violence in our communities.

Royal LePage has set this up so that each Brokerage across the country (our brokerage is: Royal LePage Estate Realty) is associated with shelters local to their community, so any money that Brokerage or individual agents from that office raise stays within that community. At LTHome and Royal LePage Estate Realty, our fundraising dollars go directly to:

- The Red Door Shelter
- Nellie's Shelter
- The Scarborough Women's Centre

One of our favourite aspects of the Foundation is that Royal LePage Corporate covers all of the administrative costs for the foundation, so that 100% of every dollar raised goes directly to the shelter's and the people that need it.

Keep an our website and social media platforms as we often talk about events and ways you can get involved in supporting the Shelter Foundation. Plus, a portion of our commission at the Collective, from every purchase or sale, also goes to the Shelter Foundation.

At LTHome we are so grateful to be a part of this great community and so thankful to each of our clients, family & friends for supporting our business, which in turn supports the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation.

"Since its founding in 1998, the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation has proudly grown to become the largest public foundation in Canada dedicated exclusively to funding women’s shelters and domestic violence prevention. Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company with its own charitable foundation.

The Shelter Foundation has raised more than $46 million to-date and currently supports 200 local women’s shelters and national partners. Our agents donate a portion of their commissions, and Royal LePage offices across Canada host local fundraising events. Our brokers, agents and staff also volunteer and provide in-kind goods to benefit the women and children residing in their local shelters. Every dollar raised goes directly to helping the more than 50,000 women and children who are served each year by the shelters and support programs we fund."
