TRENTON, NJ. August 9, 2025 — The New Jersey Realtors Educational Foundation recently distributed more than $58,000 in scholarships to 39 deserving students pursuing higher education during the 2025–2026 academic year. The scholarships, made possible through the generous support of Realtors, local boards and associations, and affiliated industry partners, reflect NJ Realtors’ ongoing commitment to supporting students across the Garden State—particularly those with ties to the real estate community.
“We are incredibly proud to support such a talented and diverse group of students,” said Sue La Rue, president of the NJ Realtors Educational Foundation. “These recipients represent the future of our state and, in many cases, the continuation of a family legacy in real estate. Their dedication, achievements, and goals truly inspire us.” Scholarship recipients, who are all relatives of New Jersey Realtors members, are pursuing degrees in a number of fields.
“The Educational Foundation is one of the most meaningful ways our association gives back,” said Kathy Morin, president of New Jersey Realtors. “We know how transformative education can be, and we’re honored to help these students take the next step in their journeys.” For more information on the NJ Realtors Educational Foundation or to contribute to future scholarships, please visit njrealtorsef.com.
