REMAX Affiliates Around the World Rally to Support Local Communities During Global REMAX Week

REMAX is known for many things, especially the strength of its global network and the trusted, professional agents who power it. A third hallmark of the brand was equally apparent in October – the generosity of REMAX affiliates.

Along with the ongoing support to REMAX philanthropic partner Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, a coordinated effort called Global REMAX Week has become a standout moment for affiliates to give back to their local communities.

This year’s celebration was no exception.

From October 5-11, REMAX affiliates from around the world promoted their efforts using the hashtag #GlobalREMAXWeek. The scope and creativity of events reflected the diversity of the REMAX network.

“Global REMAX Week is a powerful extension of our mission,” said Shawna Gilbert, REMAX Senior Vice President of Global and Commercial. “At the heart of REMAX is a commitment to community – one homeowner, one neighborhood at a time. This event enables affiliates to give back to the places they live and work in ways that reach far beyond real estate.”

In Côte d’Ivoire, one of the newest REMAX regions, agents focused on supporting the next generation by donating backpacks and school supplies to children preparing for the school year.

“Participating in Global REMAX Week is a powerful reminder that being part of this remarkable global network extends far beyond real estate – it’s about transforming lives and strengthening communities,” said Constant Tanflotien, Region Owner of REMAX Côte d’Ivoire. “Supporting the children of Centre Omega International reflects our commitment to bringing hope and opportunity to the next generation, right here in Côte d’Ivoire.”

In Mongolia, more than 60 agents and staff partnered with the National Center for Transfusion Medicine to host a blood drive, helping save an estimated 200 lives.

“Through unity and compassion, the REMAX Mongolia network once again proved that we are more than real estate,” said Tsolmon Nyamsuren, Region Development Director for REMAX Mongolia. “We create real change, and each donation was a heartbeat shared, a life touched and a testament to the REMAX spirit of giving.”

The scope and creativity of events was as diverse as the REMAX network itself. Here’s a sampling of how REMAX affiliates made an impact around the world:

• REMAX Advantage – Plovdiv, Bulgaria: Supported the revived For the City of Plovdiv 75th National Cross Relay – one of the oldest races on the Balkan Peninsula, as noted by the Guinness Book of Records.
• REMAX Dominican Republic & REMAX Ecuador: Volunteered at animal shelters and donated pet supplies.
• REMAX Malta: Hosted a lively bingo night for elderly residents.
• REMAX Cayman Islands: Organized a Breast Cancer Foundation Gala,  supported local organizations like Meals on Wheels and performed various acts of service, fundraisers and volunteering.
• REMAX Korea: Participated in the Cyber Territory Protection Marathon to support MANNA Worldwide, which aids children in poverty and assists in child development programs.
• REMAX Fairlane in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada: Stocked and sorted food donations for the Colchester Food Bank.
• REMAX Signature in Daytona, Florida: Helped build homes with Habitat for Humanity.

Employees at REMAX World Headquarters in Denver also joined in – giving blood, writing Cheer Cards for children at being treated at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals affiliates and cleaning up local parks.

REMAX CEO Erik Carlson, experiencing his second Global REMAX Week, said the event has quickly become a favorite of his.

“Seeing the creativity and compassion from our affiliates around the world is incredibly rewarding,” Carlson said. “REMAX agents and staff are some of the most generous people I’ve met, and Global REMAX Week showcases their dedication to making a difference – in their own way, in their own communities.”

While REMAX agents give back year-round, plans for the next Global REMAX Week – October 4-10, 2026 – are already underway.
