Good Neighbors are REALTORS® and Affiliates that dedicate themselves to volunteer service. They donate gifts, money, and – most importantly – a lot of time to their charity. 

Each fall, the GAAR Good Neighbor Awards are open to all GAAR members, both REALTOR® and Affiliate, who dedicate themselves to volunteer service. Each year up to four REALTOR® and one Affiliate recipient are selected. Recipients receive a $1,000 grant for their charity and are featured in GAAR's consumer outreach campaign.

Throughout the year, stay tuned for more details on each Good Neighbor and the charities they serve.

Congratulations to our Good Neighbor Recipients for 2021!
