Share Boys & Girls Club Stories with NAR |
Now that NAR and the Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) have joined forces to make a difference in communities across America, we want to learn how the REALTOR® family is getting involved and making a difference. Associations and members should send their engagement stories to narbgca@realtors.org. Some stories will be featured on the NAR/BGCA website, providing inspiration for others to get involved with their local Club. The website also has a toolkit on how to get started, a sample press release and photos of involvement in action. For more information, contact Karen Bebart at 312-329-8359. |

RPAC & Social Media |
Many REALTORS® and REALTOR® Associations are embracing social media tools such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, and integrating these tools into their day-to-day activities. In some cases this includes using those tools in connection with RPAC activities. Check out the social media guidelines for posting RPAC-related content on social media sites to ensure compliance with federal and state election laws. |
