LENDING A HAND
The REALTORS® Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh Foundation was formed in 1992 exclusively for charitable, educational, literary, and scientific purposes. It was organized under the Pennsylvania Non-Profit Corporation law and is qualified as an exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
We are a community of REALTORS® coming together to share resources and talent to help one another for the benefit of the real estate industry and the community at large. The RAMP Foundation operates the Education Grant Program and the REALTOR® Relief Fund and also participates with other not-for-profit organizations to help support charitable endeavors.
The RAMP Foundation is totally dependent on donations to support its programs. As a qualifying exempt organization, contributions to “help us help others” are charitable donations. Learn more by reading our downloadable brochure.
HELPING OUT IN TIMES OF NEED
REALTOR® Relief Fund
The REALTOR® Relief Fund is administered by the RAMP Foundation to provide temporary aid to real estate licensees in the Pittsburgh area. The purpose of the program is to help bridge the gap between need and available resources in times of crisis so that a licensee can maintain a livelihood and/or provide for the immediate family.
The relief fund is a needs-based program that assists licensees without regard to the real estate specialty or nature of the licensed activities in which they are engaged, regardless of whether or not they are REALTORS®. Competitive interests pale in comparison to the toll of physical, emotional, and financial hardship in times of crisis. Learn more by reading our downloadable brochure.
