Be Intentional . . .
CORPORATE PARTNERS
Partnering with AIREE offers corporate allies a unique opportunity to be proactive and deliberate in their commitment to shaping a brighter future. By aligning with AIREE, corporate partners contribute significantly to inspiring the next generation—particularly youth and young adults—to explore and thrive in the real estate sector.
Your partnership goes beyond monetary support; it's an investment in breaking down longstanding barriers to wealth and addressing economic disparities that have disproportionately affected under-resourced communities for over a century. Through your involvement, you aid in equipping individuals and businesses with the tools they need to succeed, fostering a more equitable distribution of opportunities and resources.
Together, we hold the power and responsibility to drive meaningful change, ensuring the real estate industry becomes a beacon of inclusivity and opportunity. By choosing to "be intentional" with AIREE, corporate partners not only contribute to narrowing the wealth gap but also play a crucial role in building a real estate landscape where equity and prosperity are accessible to all.

STRATEGIES THAT CORPORATIONS CAN TAKE TO DRIVE POSITIVE CHANGE
Corporate partners have a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact through a variety of supportive avenues with AIREE:
Employee Volunteering and Donation Matching: Commit to fostering a culture of giving by encouraging employee volunteering and instituting donation matching programs for AIREE initiatives over the next five years. This long-term engagement demonstrates a deep commitment to community development and employee involvement in philanthropy.
Business Mentorship: Volunteer your time as a business mentor to impart valuable knowledge and guidance to AIREE members who are either current business owners or in the early stages of establishing their own real estate offices. Your expertise can significantly contribute to their success and growth in the industry.
Paid Internships: Provide AIREE students and young adults with paid internship opportunities, offering them the chance to acquire new skills and techniques essential for advancing their careers in the real estate sector. Such experiences are invaluable in propelling them toward professional excellence and leadership within the industry.
Grants and Sponsorship Programs: Consider establishing grant and sponsorship programs within your organization or contributing to AIREE’s existing funds to address critical issues such as housing, employment, education, technology access, and access to capital, in under-resourced, rural, and urban areas.
By being intentional in your efforts and collaborating with organizations focused on increasing representation among young adults and people of color, you can make a tangible difference in creating more equitable communities.
By engaging in these initiatives, corporate partners not only contribute to the vital work AIREE undertakes but also align their corporate social responsibility efforts with meaningful actions that support economic development, education, and inclusivity within the real estate industry and beyond.
