Real Estate for Women
A Seminar to Educate Women on Real Estate Investment

Royal Lepage Shelter Foundation, a long-time supporter of CWF, is holding a workshop called Real Estate for Women, to take women through the buying and selling “process.” This workshop will have a variety of speakers related to the Real Estate industry, such as mortgage brokers, financial advisors, lawyers, accountants, and inspectors. Guest speakers include the Mayor of Surrey, Dianne Watts and Angela Calla from City’s Realty TV.

Proceeds from the workshop will go to Royal LePage Shelter Foundation to support local shelters for abused women and CWF’s violence prevention work.

Royal LePage Shelter Foundation (RLSF) has been a major CWF partner since 1999, and established The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation Fund at CWF, which supports violence prevention. RLSF raises funds through various initiatives, including an annual golf tournament, silent auction, and spring soiree. In addition, various offices across Canada participate in Royal LePage’s Recover Program, which accepts old cell phones and printer cartridges and donates the proceeds that come from recycling them.

Individual Royal LePage agents get involved by donating a portion of their sales commissions to CWF, or through CWF’s shelter matching program, which has paired Royal LePage offices across Canada with local women’s shelters.

To date, RLSF has given nearly $1 million in cash and in-kind donations to Canadian Women’s Foundation.
