Get Involved with Boys & Girls Clubs of America

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Earlier this year, the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® began collaborating with Boys & Girls Clubs of America in an effort to strengthen communities and support the country’s youth.

Every local Boys & Girls Club has specific needs, so local and state associations of REALTORS® and their members are encouraged to work with their local Club to determine the best way to volunteer and offer resources tohave the greatest impact.

Activities could include planning a clean-up day for the Club, sponsoring a holiday-themed party, offering tutoring assistance or hosting a career day for teenagers. Associations participating in the BGCA partnership may be able to meet either their "Community Involvement" or "Community Investment" requirements under NAR’s Organizational Alignment/Core Standards policy.
