"NAR's Good Neighbor Awards highlight the remarkable dedication of Realtors® to making a meaningful difference where they live and work," said NAR President Kevin Sears, broker-partner of Sears Real Estate in Springfield, Massachusetts. "As we celebrate 25 years of this program, we are reminded of the power of giving back and how one person can change the lives of many."
Five winners will each receive a $10,000 grant for their nonprofit organization and be recognized in November during NAR NXT, The REALTOR® Experience in Boston. Five honorable mentions will also each receive a $2,500 grant.
Since its inception, NAR's Good Neighbor Awards have recognized more than 240 Realtors® for their volunteer efforts, contributing more than $1.5 million to Realtor®-led nonprofit organizations.
