The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) honoured Vancouver REALTOR® Crystal Hung with this year’s REALTORS Care® Award for her extensive fundraising, philanthropic, and community work across Metro Vancouver.

The REALTORS Care® Award honours Metro Vancouver Realtors who demonstrate a sustained commitment to charitable, fundraising or volunteer activities that strengthen communities and support people in need.

Crystal, a REALTORS® and broker of Vancouver-based icon&co.,co-founded Pixel Moments, a successful micro-donation platform that has inspired a younger generation of people to raise more than $400,000 since 2021. She has also personally donated $1 million to the UBC Sauder Powerhouse Expansion Project. Crystal sits on fundraising and leadership committees of several organisations.

Crystal also believes in traditional, grass-roots community work. You can, for example, find her most weeks making sandwiches for the homeless on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

“Crystal is an inspiring and relentless community advocate. She embraces new technology, traditional grassroots approaches and everything in between to compel different groups and generations of people in our communities to give back and help those in need,” said Jennifer Quart, REBGV Chair. “She is a selfless, community-minded professional that we’re proud to have within our Realtor membership.”
