West Babylon, New York – April 26, 2021 – OneKey™ MLS, the largest Multiple Listing
Service in New York State, serving over 40,000 REALTORS®, is announcing it is proud
to support the REALTORS® community by donating $5,000 to the NAR REALTORS®
Relief Foundation.
The REALTORS® Relief Foundation was established as a REALTOR®-driven response
to the events of Sept. 11, 2001 and continues to provide housing-related assistance to
those in need following unexpected catastrophes. The REALTORS® Relief Foundation
restores and rebuilds communities affected by disasters such as wildfires, hurricanes,
earthquakes, and tornadoes.
Linda Lugo, Chairperson of the Board of Managers for OneKey™ MLS, said, “Playing
an active role in supporting the REALTORS® community is very important to our
organization. The opportunity to contribute to the REALTORS® Relief Foundation
allows us to sensibly and responsibly give back to a charity that helps our neighbors
and aligns with a cause we support.” Lugo added, “We are all REALTORS® and
REALTORS® like to help people, so giving to the RRF is a win-win situation.”
Thanks to the generosity of individual REALTORS®, REALTOR® Associations, Multiple
Listing Services and other affiliated organizations, the foundation has raised over $32
million in the past 20 years, helping thousands of people. Jim Speer, CEO of OneKey™
MLS, said, “We know firsthand the value of the REALTORS® Relief Foundation. In the
aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and the events of 9/11, the REALTORS® Relief
Foundation assisted many local REALTORS® and their families who suffered
unimaginable loss. A contribution to the foundation will help the RRF do more for more
people in need. It’s definitely a cause we can champion.”
