Real Heart Awards

The Foundation knows so many of you are out there making a real difference. You are volunteering your time and you are supporting shelter-related causes in your community. Our Real Heart Award is the perfect way to celebrate the amazing things you do while inspiring others to do the same.

Real Heart Awards

Each year, the Foundation presents its Real Heart Award (formerly known as the Spirit Award) to one individual and one Board/Association or other organization.

This award recognizes people and organizations in Ontario which have significantly contributed to the success of the Foundation, or advanced its goal of assisting Members of Organized Real Estate and Real Estate Boards/Associations in supporting shelter-related causes in their communities.
