IN THEIR WORDS: STORIES FROM GRANT RECIPIENTS
“As a Black woman, who is in danger of losing my home as a consequence of racism that I have experienced, the funds have given me some breathing room, as I continue to look for a solution. Prior to the gift I have felt very alone. Now I know there are people in our community moving the needle beyond 'thoughts and prayers' into deeds of action. The work of Repair Oregon is truly that of racial solidarity across differences, restoration, justice, and hope.”
"I've been working with my bank to get on a payment plan. This grant was what I needed to provide to my bank to get the plan accepted."
"I can't believe how quickly I got a response and a check. I'm used to organizations taking forever to get back to me. Thank you so much!"
"My aunt worked so hard to get this house and she really wanted this to stay in the family. This grant helped cover some needed repairs to make the house habitable. It was a great way to honor her legacy."
ABOUT US
We are a group of primarily white real estate professionals dedicated to using our resources and privilege to address decades of systemic racism within the real estate industry.
REPAIR has a Board of Directors (because the rules of the non-profit world made us have titles), and the day-to-day work is run by a small but mighty team of volunteers we call the Implementation Team.
