Another successful Dog Days of Summer campaign is in the books! Our 8th annual (2023) campaign raised $4,088 which will be split between No Animal Left Unfed and the Stamford Animal Control Alliance. Once again the campaign kicked off with CTR Directors donating pet food/supplies at their June meeting that each organization also received. Huge thanks to all who donated!!

The Foundation raised $5,540 which generated $831 in a free matching donation from Birdies for Charity for a grand total of $6,371. Every dollar raised will go directly towards scholarships awarded next year.

At the May 15, 2023 CT REALTORS® “Riding with the Brand” event, a drive was held for Hands on Hartford’s Backpack Nutrition Program. This program provides backpacks filled with meals, drinks and snacks every Friday to Hartford area school children who receive free lunch at school during the week, but struggle to find enough to eat on the weekends. Attendees very generously donated 330 pounds of food donations and over $1,200 in monetary donations. REALTORS® truly are some of the most generous people on the planet!

At the March 2023 CT REALTORS Board of Directors meeting, the Foundation held a drive to benefit two local shelters - The Women & Families Center in Meriden (Robyn's/WYSH houses for homeless youths) and The Center for Empowerment and Education in Danbury (Patricia House domestic violence shelter). As usual, BOD members came through with a MOUNTAIN of donated items along with $493 that will be split between the two organizations.
