FAREPA-SV provides advocacy and resources to its members and affiliates.  Our Executive Officers and Board of Directors have established projects such as housing fairs, first-time homebuyer program, Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU) education, partnership outreach and events.  We participated in the Multicultural Real Estate Summit Conference with the National and California Association of REALTORS® to address real estate policy issues to better serve our members.

Our fundraising led to further involvement in the Gawad Kalinga (“to give care”) Development Foundation, in which ‘FAREPA Village’ was established in the Philippines.  Our local fundraising event, FAREPA Fashion Show Charity Event, helped LifeMoves formerly known as Inn Vision, a non-profit provider for abused women, children, and family homelessness in Silicon Valley.  During these unprecedented times, we have assisted to raise funds for Family Supportive Housing Shelter, an organization to end family homelessness in the community.

FAREPA-SV proudly represents “Bayanihan” which means the spirit of communal unity, work, and cooperation to achieve a particular goal.  We will continue to empower our members in creating a unified voice in the real estate industry.
