A unifying rally cry for Realtors® across the state
These are a few of things that make us unique.
At heart, Minnesota is about people coming together to make our state a healthier, happier place to live. From volunteering at soup kitchens to serving on school boards and city councils, Minnesota Realtors® generously give their time, talent and energy to help those in need, and make Minnesota one of the best places in America.

Minnesota Realtors® Making a Difference

Lake Superior Area Realtors®
Duluth, MN
A shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) was putting the health and safety of essential workers across Minnesota at risk. So Lake Superior Area Realtors® (LSAR) came together and volunteered with the nonprofit charity Ecolibrium 3’s Pay it Forward PPE project to help assemble the much needed PPE face shields for essential workers. Together they cranked out 6,000 units in a single session!

Anita White

Realtor® Anita White wanted to help her local coffee shop The Daily Espresso Cafe during COVID-19. She gave them $100 for a “pay it forward” fund to pay coffee forward to the next person. This started 104 straight days of customers continuing the random act of kindness, and led to $10K in donations

Lakes Country Association of Realtors® (LCAR)

When Detroit Lakes was asked what would enhance their community the answer was more art! So the Lakes County Association of Realtors® team got to work raising money and searching for an artist. After 6 months of work, the “Glassinator” was brought to life!
