Real Estate and Building Industry

 

Building stronger communities.

25 years ago, a few hundred members of the Real Estate and Building Industry came together with a shared vision: to bring together those who were shaping Boston’s skyline around an opportunity to fortify our foundation — the people and families in our neighborhoods — through United Way.

 

The impact of United Way and the Real Estate Industry

  • In 25 years, the real estate industry has invested over $48 million in United Way programs, impacting more than 375,000 families in that time.
  • The industry raises an annual $3 million to support United Way housing programs through the Breakfast and workplace campaigns.
  • In the last year, 9,000 homeless and at-risk families successfully avoided homelessness.
  • This year, 66 Community Builders volunteers engaged in 250 hours of service.
