Year of Service


Both the National Association of REALTORS and the REALTORS Association of New Mexico have chosen the Boys & Girls Club of America as their year of service project.

The National Association of Realtors® has joined forces with Boys & Girls Clubs of America in an effort to strengthen communities and support the country’s youth.

Beginning in 2016, NAR and BGCA will begin collaborating to make a positive impact in communities across the country. Realtors® are the most trusted resource for real estate information, with unparalleled knowledge of local market conditions, while BGCA, the premier youth development organization in the U.S. serving nearly 4 million kids and teens annually, has helped put young people on a path to a great future for more than a century. Both groups are essential to their communities and integral to American society.

“BGCA has been close to my heart for many years, and as I begin my NAR presidential term, I am very excited that Realtors® will be partnering with their local Clubs and offering their time and resources to make a difference in the lives of their communities’ children,” said NAR President Tom Salomone, broker-owner of Real Estate II Inc. in Coral Springs, Florida. “Every Realtor® knows building strong communities is an important part of the job, and working with BGCA allows us the chance to contribute meaningfully to the lives of children in the neighborhoods we help to create.”

REALTORS® Association of New Mexico’s Benevolent Fund is conducting a raffle to raise funds for the Boys & Girls Clubs of New Mexico.
