ALTA Good Deeds Foundation Awards Housing Grant

WASHINGTON, May 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Land Title Association (ALTA) Good Deeds Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded by ALTA, the national trade association of the land title insurance industry, has announced it is awarding a $6,000 grant to the National Fair Housing Alliance in Washington, D.C.. The Foundation announced the grant during ALTA Advocacy Summit, ALTA's annual public affairs event.

"This organization works to eliminate housing discrimination and ensure equitable housing opportunities for all Americans through education and outreach, public policy, advocacy and housing and community development," said Foundation Board Chair Mary O'Donnell, president and CEO of Westcor Land Title Insurance Co. and past president of ALTA. "In less than three years since the ALTA Good Deeds Foundation was founded, we have awarded $724,000 in grants to 123 community nonprofits in 39 states and the District of Columbia."
