Realtor Magazine seeks nominations for 2018 Good Neighbor awards
Realtors members of the National
Association of Realtors,
not only help people find the
right place to live, they are
also committed volunteers who give
back to their communities. Seventyone
percent of Realtors volunteered
in their community last year, according
to NAR’s 2017 Member Profile.
NAR is currently accepting applications
for Realtor Magazine’s Good
Neighbor Awards from Realtors who
have made an impact on the world
through community service. Entries
must be received by Friday, May 4.
Five winners will be announced
in the November/December issue of
Realtor Magazine and will receive a
$10,000 grant for their nonprofit organizations.
The winners will be recognized
at the 2018 Realtor Conference
and Expo in Boston, receive travel
expenses to the conference, and gain
national and local media exposure for
their cause. In addition to the winners,
five honorable mentions will
each receive a $2,500 grant.
“Every year Realtors across the
country are raising the bar and working
harder than ever to make a difference
in their communities through
volunteer work,” says NAR President
Elizabeth Mendenhall, CEO of RE/
MAX Boone Realty in Columbia, Missouri.
“For almost two decades, more
than 180 Good Neighbors have shown
outstanding dedication to their causes,
which has had a tremendous impact
on their neighbors and community.”
Since 2000, the Good Neighbor
Awards program has donated more
than $1.1 million to Realtor-led
nonprofits around the country. The
success of the program has been possible
through the support of primary
sponsor realtor.com and Wells Fargo
Home Mortgage.
Realtor.com also
sponsors the Web
Choice Favorite component,
an award that
will confer additional
grant money to the
three finalists who get
the most votes from
the public.
Last year’s Good
Neighbor Awards winners
contributed thousands of hours
and raised millions of dollars for their
causes. More than 5,000 Realtors and
guests were on hand to show their
appreciation to the winners during the
2017 annual conference in Chicago.
The 2017 winners were Bryson
Garbett, Garbett Homes, Salt Lake City,
Utah, founder of Foundation Escalera;
Howard “Hoddy” Hanna, Howard Hanna
Real Estate, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
founding chairman of the Howard
Hanna Children’s Free Care Fund; Kay
Wilson-Bolton, Century 21 Troop Real
Estate, Santa Paula, California, founder
of the SPIRIT of Santa Paula; Louise
McLean, RE/MAX Solutions, Merritt
Island, Florida, founder of Space Coast
Association of Realtors Foundation;
and Sal Dimiceli, Lake Geneva Realty,
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, founder of
The Time Is Now to Help.
Nominees are considered for the
award based on their personal impact
on the community through volunteer
work. To be eligible, nominees must
be NAR members in good standing.
Good Neighbor Award entries must
be received by Friday, May 4. For
