The 2010 fundraising year is underway and the RPAC Trustees set the following fundraising goals for PA-RPAC. The overall fundraising goal for 2010 is set at $600,000. PA-RPAC will strive for 40% participation from PAR members. Only investments made at fair share level ($15) or above will be calculated in this total. 

 

The National Association of REALTORS has challenged all state associations to reach 100% RPAC participation from all committee members. A Trustee has been assigned to each committee to speak about RPAC at PAR Business Meetings and follow-up with committee members throughout the year.

 

With a fundraising deadline of Friday, October 8, the RPAC Trustees have rolled out an aggressive fundraising plan including e-mails to PAR membership, an online element to the May RPAC Auction and increased use of online tools including the PA-RPAC facebook page and the RPAC website.

 

One hundred and seventy members attended the RPAC Awards Luncheon to honor the fundraising efforts of local associations/boards in the 2009 year. Attendees, who invested $99 or more in RPAC in 2009, enjoyed a luncheon followed by the awards ceremony. The 2009 executive committee, Ellen Renish, Chair, George Raad, Fundraising Chair and Kim Skumanick, Treasurer, presented the awards.
