Nearly 200 HGAR Members Volunteered at 20 Organizations in 2023
WHITE PLAINS—The Hudson Gateway Realtor Foundation (HGRF), the charitable arm of the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors, donated a total of $85,100 to 34 charities and non-profit organizations throughout the Hudson Valley and beyond in 2023. As it enters its 11th year of fundraising, the foundation is gearing up for another successful year of providing financial assistance to those organizations dedicated to helping the needy in the New York metro area and elsewhere.
“The mission of our Realtor Foundation is to give back to those in need in the many communities where our members live and work,” said Gail Fattizzi, President of the HG Realtor Foundation. “Each year, we are committed to raising money that, in turn, is granted to many of the local non-profit organizations that support our local communities and help them thrive. We also encourage our members to volunteer their time, as well as provide financial support. The generosity of our Realtor and Affiliate members, as well as our event sponsors and volunteers, is vital to fulfilling the foundation’s mission of helping our neighbors.”
