It's Election Day! Make Your Voice Heard!

Did you know REALTORS® do more than help people buy and sell homes?

We're also passionate advocates for strong communities, private property rights, and policies that protect homeownership opportunities for everyone.

Today, we encourage EVERYONE to get out and VOTE! Your voice matters, and your vote helps shape the future of the communities we all call home.

🧤❄️ HELP US KEEP LOCAL KIDS WARM! 🧣💚

Winter is right around the corner, and Northeast Iowa REALTORS® is excited to kick off our annual Hat & Mitten Drive!

We're teaming up with local real estate offices, businesses, and community partners to collect NEW hats, mittens, gloves, and other winter accessories to help keep children in the Cedar Valley warm this winter.

✨ How can YOU help?

Donate: Pick up a few extra hats or mittens while you're shopping!

Drop Off: We've made it easy! With collection locations throughout the Cedar Valley, there's a convenient place near you. Check out the flyer for our participating drop-off locations!

Give Online: Can't make it to a drop-off location? Simply scan the QR code on the flyer to make a monetary donation!

📅 Donation Deadline: Friday, November 13!

Last year's drive was an incredible success thanks to the generosity of our community, and we're hoping to make an even BIGGER impact this year!

A warm hat and a pair of mittens may seem like a small gift, but they can make a BIG difference for a child facing a cold Iowa winter.

Let's come together, Cedar Valley, and spread a little warmth—one hat and one pair of mittens at a time!

👏 A HUGE thank you to all our participating businesses and community partners for helping make this drive possible!

💗 Wrapping Our Community in Love! 💗

Approximately 20 of our amazing REALTOR® members came together for a day of friendship, laughter, and blanket-making, all for a special cause! Together, we created cozy tie blankets to bring a little extra comfort and encouragement to cancer patients receiving treatment at MercyOne.

Thank you to our members, Ann Lyons, Karmen Schwake and Tina Geweke for helping to deliver them!
