RELIEF FOR REALTORS® IMPACTED BY WILDFIRES & OTHER NATURAL DISASTERS
We have been helping the REALTOR® family recover from natural disasters for more than 15 years. The C.A.R. Disaster Relief Fund was established in the wake of the devastating 2003 California wildfires, thanks to generous contributions from the California Association of REALTORS®, state and local REALTOR® associations and other contributors, and provides grants for REALTORS®, employees of REALTORS® and association staff.

If you have experienced property damage and/or loss due to the wildfires, or suffered from a recent natural disaster and need assistance, you may be eligible for a grant from the C.A.R. Disaster Relief Fund.

RELIEF FOR REALTORS® IMPACTED BY CORONAVIRUS
The coronavirus is impacting communities across California, including our REALTOR® family. C.A.R. is here to help, and one of our top priorities is providing the REALTOR® family with guidance on relief efforts available from the federal and state governments, as well as C.A.R.’s own Disaster Relief Fund. Our current resources for REALTOR® Relief are available at https://www.carcovidupdates.org/realtor-relief, and the latest information on all of our efforts and information on the coronavirus will always be available at car.org/coronavirus. We are here for you and will be doing everything we can to help during these precedented times. REALTORS® and association staff are eligible to apply.

If you have tested positive for COVID-19, or a member of your household or immediate family member (spouse, parent, child or sibling) has tested positive for COVID-19 resulting in extreme financial hardship for you and/or your family, you may be eligible for a grant from the C.A.R. Disaster Relief Fund.

FIRE INSURANCE ONE SHEETS

Use these materials to keep your customers informed about how to protect their homes, keep their insurance coverage and find new coverage when necessary.
