NAR Local Triple Crown and President’s Cup Awards
NAR awards local associations for their RPAC fundraising and grassroots efforts. Check out the NAR Realtor® Party website to see a list of your associations goals for the NAR Local Triple Crown and President’s Cup Awards.
Local association executive and government affairs directors also can generate a real-time report through the Aristotle PAC Management system showing your association’s progress for both awards. To generate the report, please login to Aristotle, go to the “Reporting” tab and click on “custom reports.” On the custom reports page, you’ll scroll down to “RPAC national awards tracking report” (green font color). Once you are in this report, you simply change the first drop down box from state to local and then generate the Excel report. For more information, please contact Sherri Martin.
RPAC
The Realtors® Political Action Committee is integral to the success of our advocacy efforts on behalf of our members. This RPAC educational video will help you and your members get a better idea of how RPAC works. We have created a PowerPoint presentation and talking points on RPAC for you to use during your presentations at offices or in other settings.
For your new members, we have created an RPAC section for your new member orientation.
If you are planning to hold an RPAC sweepstakes, PAR has done the work for you. We have created a sweepstakes overview and sweepstakes tickets you can print.
Want to get the word out about RPAC? That’s great! Just make sure you are following these RPAC social media guidelines to make sure you are complying with legal requirements surrounding how you ask for and raise PAC dollars.
Here are the personal RPAC disclaimer and corporate RPAC disclaimer for you to use on your dues bills or in other RPAC materials.
Broker Involvement Program
The Broker Involvement Program allows the broker to connect directly with their agents about calls to action and is an effective way to make sure member voices are being heard on capitol hill. The BIP drives turnout for calls to action at a rate that is better than receiving the call from the association or its leaders. NAR has a grant program in place for promoting the BIP at broker events at the local level. Here are some answers to your additional questions and this is where your brokers would go to sign up.
Realtor® Party
The Realtor® Party is a powerful alliance of Realtors® and Realtor® Associations working to advance public policies and candidates that build strong communities, protect property interests and promote a vibrant business environment.
