After doing the research, we have chosen to support "The Twin Towers Fund."  This fund which has been backed by both the NY Post as well as several other major corporations, has been established to help the families of those Fireman and Police Officers who gave their lives trying to save so many others.  The fund is to directly benefit the families of these men and women who will never be coming home to their own children again.    For the month of October, the NRBA members will pledged $100 to the Twin Tower Fund for every REO listing they receive an additional $5 for every BPO order.   You may find out more about the Twin Towers Fund by visiting: www.nypost.com/attack/twintowersfund/donate.htm       Here’s how it works: Over the last few days we have received numerous telephone calls and e-mails from our members concerning the terrible tragedy that has befallen our brothers and sisters in New York City. All of these calls and e-mails dealt with the NRBA doing something to help as a group. Possibly some sort of fund-raiser to benefit those who have fallen. Over the last few days - I have spoken with all of the NRBA Directors in regard to this and by telephone vote - this is what we have decided to do. After doing the research, we have chosen to support "The Twin Towers Fund" This fund which has been backed by both the NY Post as well as several other major corporations,  has been established to help the families of those Fireman and Police Officers who gave their lives trying to save so many others. The fund is to directly benefit the families of these men and women who will never be coming home to their own children again. We have chosen to do this along the same format as we had done for the Make-A-Wish Foundation fund-raiser. We are asking every member to donate $100 for each listing and $5 for each BPO received during the month of October to the Twin Towers Fund. Myself and several of the other NRBA Directors have all already pledged a minimum of $1000 each to get this started. Again - this is strictly voluntary, but we would like each of the members to do whatever they can to help these families. We will be notifying the clients about our efforts just as we did for the MAW fund-raiser. The forms and details are attached.
