The partnerships recognized through the Ambassadors for Cities program have made the American dream a reality for more people—from all backgrounds and walks of life, in communities across the nation. LBAR has worked with community leaders to foster hope through homeownership through its work with the REALTOR® Community Housing Foundation (RCHF). RCHF depends on community volunteers, funding, and of course, REALTORS®, to ensure that the housing needs of the Bluegrass are met through home rehabilitation for the elderly, homeownership counseling for potential homebuyers, and installation of access ramps for the disabled.
Since its inception, the Ambassadors for Cities program has recognized 34 local REALTOR® associations and their cities for innovative partnerships to create more housing opportunities.
