Honoring the Future: 2025 RASM REALTORS® Charitable Foundation Scholarship Recipients

Posted by: Kim Coffland, Fundraising Programs Coordinator on Tuesday, June 24, 2025

 

Each year, the RASM REALTORS® Charitable Foundation (RRCF) proudly invests in the future by supporting the next generation of leaders through its annual scholarship program. In 2025, 21 exceptional students were awarded scholarships of $2,000 each to help pursue their academic goals.

A Morning of Celebration

Recipients and their families were honored during a special breakfast celebration at the Carlisle Inn, where each student received a personalized certificate and congratulations from members of the RRCF Board and Scholarship Committee. The event recognized not only academic achievement, but also the spirit of community and support that defines RRCF’s mission.

Powered by Community Support

These scholarships are made possible thanks to the generosity of our REALTOR® members and business partners. Throughout the year, RASM events help raise funds through raffle ticket sales, sponsorships, and participation—every dollar going toward empowering local students and building a brighter future.

Selection Process

This year’s committee received over 70 applications and carefully narrowed the field to 30 finalists. Each finalist completed a personal interview before the final 21 recipients were selected. Notably, ten of this year’s recipients are children or grandchildren of RASM members.

Bound for Greatness

The 2025 scholarship recipients will attend prestigious institutions including Columbia, Cornell, Florida State University, and the University of Florida, with majors ranging from Marine Science and Engineering to Finance and Biology. Whether they remain in Florida or venture out of state, these students carry with them the support and pride of the REALTOR® community.
