Lani,
Did the list also have companies listed by their donations?

If you go to the list and click “Donor Bios” it says where all donations went, but it’s not listed in the reverse. Some donors gave major pledges to more than one cause I believe.

I do think there should be more. I am surprised that my company Keller Williams is not on the list. They are usually huge on donations and giving. I’ll have to look into that!
It would be interesting to know from every Realtor say who makes more than $250,000 in commissions, what their charity level is. It’s hard sometimes not to be apathetic to the really big problems (i.e. Haiti, cancer, etc) because you might feel your one donation won’t make a difference. But, if you look at your donation as helping just one person, it takes on a different flavor. I hope 2010 finds all Realtors thanking their communities or even bigger causes with a healthy donation!

Cindy, Slate only looked at personal donations, not corporate donations- I’m sure KW would be on a corporate list, I’ll see if I can find one.
I would be curious what mega producers donate too- all of the large producers here in Austin that I know personally are ridiculously generous with their money AND volunteer time, but I know not all cities are as philanthropic as Austin, so I don’t know what it’s like in the rest of the country.
