Foundation Signature Events
The Foundation’s signature events are more than fundraisers — they are mission moments that unite the real estate community around one goal: ending homelessness through housing. Each event plays a distinct role in generating the resources needed to support grants and long-term housing solutions across central Indiana.
The Ball
The Foundation Ball is our premier winter celebration, bringing together REALTORS®, corporate partners, and community leaders for an evening of impact. Through sponsorships, auctions, and direct giving, the Ball generates significant support for both grantmaking and long-term sustainability. It is a high-energy, mission-driven night that highlights stories of housing transformation and recognizes the donors who make this work possible.
Golf Invitational
The Golf Invitational combines relationship-building with purpose. Brokerages, affiliates, and industry partners gather on the course for a day of competition, networking, and philanthropy. Sponsorships and team participation help fund the Foundation’s housing initiatives while strengthening engagement within the real estate community. It’s a strategic event that drives both revenue and visibility.
REAL Challenge Celebration
The REAL Challenge is a competitive, team-based fundraising experience that rallies offices and individuals to raise dollars in creative and high-energy ways. Designed to activate broad participation, this event fuels peer-to-peer fundraising and expands donor engagement. It builds momentum, fosters friendly competition, and directly supports the Foundation’s mission to move households from homelessness to housing.
Stream-a-thon
The Stream-a-thon is a live, interactive fundraising event that spotlights grantee partners and the real impact of housing investment. Throughout the broadcast, viewers hear stories from nonprofits on the front lines and are invited to give in real time. Match opportunities and live engagement create urgency and excitement, turning awareness into immediate action.
Together, these signature events create a diversified and sustainable funding model, engaging donors at every level while keeping the focus where it belongs - Homelessness Ends with a Home.
