About the Foundation
The Omaha Area Board of REALTORS® Foundation allows you to channel your charitable contributions to benefit efforts important to our industry and the local community. The Foundation operates as a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and magnifies the philanthropic efforts of our REALTOR® committees and councils. Nine local REALTORS® serve as the OABR Foundation’s Board of Directors.
OABR absorbs all overhead expenses, which means 100 percent of donations directly fund vital housing-related causes, scholarships for UNO real estate students, scholarships for minorities working toward licensure and a career in real estate, and special needs in the greater Omaha community.
