Riley Home Realty Highlights Commitment to Community Giveback Through Leadership and Service in 2025
Kate Riley has long believed that strong communities are built through active participation, meaningful relationships, and consistent service. In 2025, she continued to donate her time and leadership to a wide range of local nonprofit organizations and civic initiatives through volunteering, board service, committee involvement, and hands-on support. Her efforts reflect a deep dedication to strengthening the social fabric of Western Massachusetts.
Kate currently serves as a Board Member for the Chicopee Chamber of Commerce, Chicopee Rotary Club, and the Boys and Girls Club of Chicopee. She also lends expertise in additional volunteer advisory roles with those organizations; plus she contributes her time, insight, and advocacy to support youth development, economic vitality, and community wellbeing with Lorraine’s Soup Kitchen and Pantry, United Way, and the For The Love Of Good Foundation.
Her community involvement also extends to membership and support of many organizations such as YPS of Greater Springfield, The Chicopee Situation Table, National Association of REALTORS®, Massachusetts Association of REALTORS®, REALTOR Association of Pioneer Valley®, and BNI Destination Success (former President 2024-2025 and currently Visitor Host Coordinator).
At Riley Home Realty they enjoy being active and will continue to support initiatives that promote connections. This commitment reinforces the company’s belief that success in real estate is deeply connected to the health and strength of the communities it serves. The team looks forward to continuing its support of many local causes and organizations in the year ahead including sponsoring the Chicopee Police Department’s Police Unity Tour: Team Western Mass , a powerful ride that honors law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty; as well as hosting the 4th Annual Summer Event, where 100% of money raised goes to benefit Lorraine’s Soup Kitchen and Pantry.
Kate Riley grew up in Western Massachusetts and has built lasting roots while living by her philosophy that when you work with Riley Home Realty, you feel like family. Kate shares, “I believe my background in insurance and recruiting shaped my people-first approach. Every relationship I make is grounded in listening, understanding, and meeting clients where they are.” These same values guide her leadership within the company and her dedication to community service.
