Let’s put abuse out of commission!
The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation is Canada’s largest public foundation dedicated exclusively to funding women’s shelters and violence prevention and education programs.
Because we believe in the importance of giving back to the community, Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company to have our own charitable foundation. All of the administrative costs of the Shelter Foundation are underwritten so that 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to helping our cause.
Royal LePage real estate agents and their clients are working to create safer homes and safer communities by contributing more than $10 million since 1999 to help women and children across Canada. Through donating a portion of their commission on the purchase or sale of your property, our agents are helping bring hope and provide shelter for those who need it most.
Our brokers, agents and staff also provide volunteer time and in-kind goods, and hold special community events to help raise funds and awareness to end family violence for more than 30,000 women and children who take refuge in a shelter each year.

How We Help
Royal LePage agents, brokers and staff help abused women and children in their community by donating a portion of their commission and planning special events to benefit local shelters. To break the cycle of violence, we also fund grassroots violence prevention and education initiatives in schools and the community.

Why We Help
Canadian statistics on violence against women and their children are staggering. The Shelter Foundation and Royal LePage real estate agents are proud to work with local women’s shelters and our partners to help put abuse out of commission and lend a helping hand to those who do not have a safe and peaceful home.
