Dallas, TX – January 2, 2019 – Associa Cares, the non-profit affiliate of Associa, the industry’s largest community management company, has helped more than 440 families that have been affected or displaced by natural and man-made disasters in 2018.
Associa Cares launched in 2007 and is funded entirely by tax-deductible donations of Associa employees and concerned citizens across North America. Since its inception, the non-profit has provided financial grants to more than 2500 families.

Over the course of the year, assistance provided by Associa Cares spanned North America with recipients in U.S, Canada, and Mariana Islands.
