Royal LePage Shelter Foundation







There are many rewards that come with being a Royal LePage agent. There is one thing in particular that stands out in my mind, that I'm very proud of. Royal LePage Shelter Foundation!The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation is Canada's largest public foundation dedicated exclusively to funding women's shelter and violence prevention and education programs. Many people are not aware of this.Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company to have thier own charitable foundation. All of the administrative costs of the shelter foundation are under written so that a 100% of EVERY DOLLAR donated goes to help out the cause.Royal LePage real estate agents and their clients are working to create safer homes and communities by contributing more then 10 million since 1999 to help women and children across canada.Through donating a portion of their commissions on the purchase or sale of a property.Agents bringing hope to provide shelter to those who need it most. I find this cause very fitting, given the business we are in. Each year Brokers, agents, and staff at Royal LePage help raise funds and awareness to end family violence for more then 30,000 women and children who take refuge in a shelter each year.http://shelterfoundation.ca/
