The 2022 Lawrence Lights - Making Spirits Bright drive-through holiday light show resulted in a $47,206 contribution to programs in the community supported by the Lawrence REALTORS® Community Foundation, the SERTOMA Club of Lawrence, and The City of Lawrence Parks and Recreation.

Giving Back

In October of 2023, we awarded another $47,000, bringing our total investment toward housing assistance in Lawrence and Douglas County to $229,000, since 2018.

100% of the contributions to the Lawrence REALTORS® Community Foundation are invested in programs in Lawrence & Douglas County for programs that help to stabilize housing and households that are in jeopardy and need a little help.

The Lawernce Board of REALTORS® pays all expenses and overhead so that all event proceeds go to work in our community.
