Care For Kids and $1,000 for Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Society.

This is all made possible due to WECAR fundraising initiatives and members’ contributions of $1 per member per month to the REALTORS Care Foundation. For 2019 the grand total was just shy of $62,000 for local charities and projects. Representing over 1,097 members, the Windsor-Essex County Association of REALTORS (WECAR) is now guided by its 2020 Board of Directors and new President, Lorraine Clark, a Sales Representative with Century 21 Showtime Realty Ltd.

Founded in 1918, WECAR is the second oldest real estate association in Canada.
