Help IRRF raise $5,000 to help victims of the year-end floods that inundated communities along the state’s rivers.

The Illinois REALTORS® Relief Foundation has set up a campaign to raise $5,000 for the victims of the flooding that hit southern and central Illinois.

IRRF, the charitable arm of the Illinois Association of REALTORS®, is accepting donations through a GoFundMe effort. To take part go here.

IRRF has provided relief for those in areas hit by natural disasters, including tornadoes last year in Illinois and flooding near Watseka. The foundation provides living and housing assistance for qualified applicants, and has worked with the National Association of REALTORS® charitable arm to get additional assistance when needed.

A massive storm system dumped as much as 14 inches of rain across the nation’s midsection over the holidays, and across the region more than 20 deaths have been attributed to the storm.
