Our Mission: The REALTOR® Foundation supports local nonprofit organizations solving homelessness. We envision a central Indiana where everyone has a safe place to call home. 

The Foundation focuses primarily on the transitional housing needs and supportive services for central Indiana residents who are experiencing or are on the verge of homelessness as a result of, but not limited to, the following situations: domestic abuse, natural disasters, mental or physical illness, addiction, income loss, or other personal tragedies.

Applications may only be submitted online. A Letter of Intent is required by July 12, 2024. Current year grant recipients do not need to submit a Letter of Intent. If selected, an invitation to complete the grant application will be sent on or before August 1, 2024.  Potential applicants are encouraged to discuss their request with the Foundation in advance of submission. Please contact Ben Carter, Executive Director, at 317-956-5255 or bencarter@realtorfoundation.org.
