windermere Foundation

Dedicated to helping low-income and homeless families in our community, since 1989.

THE WINDERMERE FOUNDATION

GIVING BACK

Giving back has always been a big part of who we are. For the past 30 years a portion of every Windermere agent’s commission has been donated to the Windermere Foundation to help homeless and low-income families, with an emphasis on helping children.

Since 1989, we have raised $46 million. This year we want to raise $4 million to reach our goal of $50 million raised in 50 years in honor of Windermere's 50th anniversary. 

IN THE BEGINNING

In the early days of Windermere, giving back was pretty simple; we would see a need and help any way we could. But as we grew, we realized we could accomplish much more if we had a common purpose. That’s how the Windermere Foundation was born.

We started with an idea that would give every Windermere agent the ability to make a difference. Housing is our business, so helping homeless families seemed like a natural fit. We later expanded that to include low-income families, with an emphasis on helping children.

EVERY HOME SOLD

For the past 30 years a portion of every Windermere agent’s commission has been donated to the Windermere Foundation. Having 100% participation gives us a common purpose and sends a powerful message about our commitment to the community.
