Louisiana is currently experiencing an historic 500 year flash flood in places that have never flooded before and most in those areas do not have flood insurance. State and Federal agencies are actively in a search and rescue situation with water still rising in some areas and thousands of people who have lost everything.
The Louisiana REALTORS leadership and staff have activated the Louisiana REALTORS Relief Fund and will assist those that have experienced damages and loss. The fund can also actively accept additional contributions with 100% of all funds collected going to disaster relief causes. Donations can be made online.

The funds delivered ensure property owners can once again enjoy the pride of ownership, REALTORS are able to practice their trade and communities are revitalized and strengthened.
