DALLAS, Texas – March 8, 2017 – Associa, the industry’s largest community management firm, continued its commitment to family spirit and supporting strong communities by distributing $10,500 in February to families who experienced an unforeseen catastrophic event impacting their home.  

The funds were donated on behalf of Associa Cares, a charitable organization set up to benefit families across the country who need assistance following a catastrophe at home such as a flood, fire or tornado.  Associa Cares dollars are raised by employees and fundraising events. The fund relies on volunteers from national and local committees to help identify people in both Associa and non-Associa managed communities affected by tragedies.

Below is a list of the Associa companies that helped families in need in their respective areas of the country in February:

• Albuquerque, New Mexico - $2,000 donated to a local family who suffered a total loss from a house fire. The contribution was made possible through Canyon Gate.
