About SARCF

The Salem Association of Realtors Community Fund (SARCF) (dba as MVAR Community Foundation), was founded in 2004 as a way for REALTORS® and Affiliate members in the Mid-Willamette Valley to have a positive impact in the community. SARCF is a charitable (501c3, Tax ID # 68-0587535) organization with the following goals:

To break the cycle of homelessness and provide opportunities for affordable housing
To serve disadvantaged children and families in crisis
To contribute to the livability of the community and build a sense of pride in neighborhoods.

Our Community Foundation is funded by members, sustainers, and fundraising events. The benefits of supporting SARCF include bettering our community, a better public image for the real estate industry and donations that are deductible as charitable contributions. Our Board of Directors are always working hard to get new and exciting ways to bring together the members and the community.
