NAR Donates Half-Million to California Wildfire Relief
WASHINGTON, October 25, 2007 - The National Association of Realtors®, through the REALTORS® Relief Foundation, is donating a half-million dollars to help the victims of the disastrous wildfires that have swept California and left thousands of people homeless.
“Helping people experience the American Dream of homeownership and building our communities are what Realtors® are all about,” said National Association of Realtors® President Pat V. Combs, of Grand Rapids, Mich., and vice president of Coldwell Banker-AJS-Schmidt Combs. “We understand as Realtors® how rewarding it is to own your own home, and we can sympathize with how horrible it is to have that home go up in flames. For so many people to lose their homes in Southern California is heartbreaking.”
NAR is also calling on its 1.3 million Realtor® members to contribute to the REALTORS® Relief Foundation, which distributes donations to help these and other victims of natural disasters. The call was made by Combs and REALTORS® Relief Foundation President Martin Edwards, of Memphis, Tenn.; they are encouraging Realtors® across America to open their hearts and their pocketbooks to assist those who have lost their homes in California.
“We are gratified for the rapid response by NAR in their efforts to assist Realtors® in California and other members of the Realtor® family who have been impacted by the Southern California wildfires,” said Colleen Badagliacco, president of the California Association of Realtors®. “NAR’s contribution to our Disaster Relief Fund will go a long way in helping to mitigate the impact of the wildfires on our members and their families.”
Contributions to the REALTORS® Relief Foundation can be made online through NAR’s secure eCommerce Web site at www.realtor.org/relief. Contributions are tax deductible.
To make a contribution by mail, make checks payable to the REALTORS® Relief Foundation and send to: REALTORS® Relief Fo

Helping Homeowners Keep Their Home
Information by State
Owning a home has always been at the center of the American Dream. For many homeowners, however, that dream is threatened by foreclosure. An estimated 240,000 families can avoid foreclosure by refinancing their mortgages using the new FHASecure plan. FHA will allow families with strong credit histories who had been making timely mortgage payments before their loans reset-but are now in default-to qualify for refinancing.
