Real estate in the Lehigh Valley is 100 years old. The Greater Lehigh Valley REALTORS®, a trade association that represents over 3,000 real estate professionals throughout Lehigh, Northampton and Carbon counties, is celebrating its centennial in 2021. GLVR Launches Grant Program to Celebrate 100 Years In celebration of the milestone birthday, the association's Board of Directors has created a grant program to support non-profit organizations in Lehigh, Northampton, and Carbon counties. Coming out of a pandemic year, the ramifications of which continue to be felt, the Board decided that instead of spending its 100th-anniversary money on gifts and internal recognition, they wanted it to be forwardfacing and to go into our community. 36

REALTORS® have been a cornerstone of this community since 1921. We have never been here just for the transaction. We are here – and have always been here, for the last 100 years – to help build the community. These grants will allow our organization to aid non-profits and community organizations that have been hit hard by the pandemic. We look forward to hearing from them and helping our community exactly where it's needed. What to know about the grant application process: Organizations applying must be non-profit. Each organization must highlight the community impact of their project and the financial investment into the program that they are requesting funding.
