THE HOW, WHAT, WHEN, AND WHERE!

It is a simple, but powerful concept:

  • A donation of 1 hour of time by a REALTOR® or Affiliate Member = 1 Point of Light.
  • Donations may be gifted to ANY organization, entity, family, or individual in need.
  • Members record the number of hours contributed and the Association monitors the collective total in an effort to promote and reach the goal of 50,000 hours.
  • To submit hours contributed, Members simply click on the green button above and enter their Association User ID (without the letter G) and Password, and then follow the prompts on the screen.
