Focusing on Community

ERA American Real Estate has been supporting the community for over 40 years.In 2012, the ERA American Charitable Foundation was founded to expand the company’s community support efforts.

Through donations from their agents, staff and the community at large, the foundation is able to fulfill its mission of supporting local organizations whose focus is on improving the lives of families and children.

“Though the ERA American Charitable Foundation was officially founded in 2012, agents and staff have been giving to charitable causes through payroll and commissions since the late 1980s,” said Gloria Frazier, Broker and Founder of ERA American Real Estate. “The company has sent close to $1,000,000 into the local community.”

The ERA American Charitable Foundation has a long-standing endowed scholarship at Northwest Florida State College and supports local public and private schools. Over the years, the foundation has financially supported countless organizations who are making a difference in our communities.

“As a resident of Santa Rosa County, I love being able to see the money we raise throughout the year go right back into the community,” said Lorie Coogle, Realtor with ERA American Real Estate. “The Santa Rosa Kids House has such a positive impact on the lives of children in our area, and we were honored to be a part of presenting the team with a donation from the foundation for our efforts last year.”

To increase contribution efforts in the community, ERA American Real Estate will match all foundation donations up to $5,000 during the Week of Giving, Nov. 27–Dec. 1, 2023.

This year, organizations including The Arc of the Emerald Coast, Santa Rosa Kids House, and Matrix COC will be the primary beneficiaries of the Week of Giving movement.

Additionally, in partnership with the national brand ERA Real Estate, each ERA American Real Estate office will serve as drop-off points for Toys for Tots.
