I will make a contribution on behalf of the buying side and/or selling side to the local hospital affiliated with the Children's Miracle Network. The funds raised in our community remain in the area to benefit local children.

Children's Miracle Network

Children's Miracle Network and RE/MAX are paired as closely as their exuberant hot air balloon logos, tied by their desire to provide independence to local communities. Since RE/MAX became the exclusive real estate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network in 1992, RE/MAX Associates have raised more than $56 million for the charity.

Founded in 1983, Children's Miracle Network generates health-care funds and awareness programs for the benefit of children. The nonprofit organization's 174 participating hospitals across North America help 17 million children annually.

RE/MAX Associates raise funds for Children's Miracle Network in a variety of ways including:

• Pledging a contribution derived from each transaction involving a RE/MAX Miracle Home®.
• Staging fundraising events - from parking-lot flea markets to minnow racing.
• Handling the phones at the organization's annual telethon fundraising event, the largest of its kind in the world.

Miracle Home®

The Miracle Home® Program, exclusive to RE/MAX International, allows a RE/MAX Associate to make a donation on behalf of each transaction to Children's Miracle Network. The partnership underscores Sales Associate involvement in the communities in which they live and serve. RE/MAX Sales Associates are unique in that a majority of the donations received by Children's Miracle Network from RE/MAX are the direct result of Associates' hard work rather than solicited from customers.
