2021 Make a Difference Day Projects

1. We Made a Difference at Fairview Cemetery

In honor of our Centennial, GAAR took on a volunteer project at the Historic Fairview Cemetery, which relies on volunteers to keep the grounds clean and weed-free.

The Historic Fairview Cemetery is the oldest public cemetery in Albuquerque where many of the early founders of Albuquerque lie including Margaret Medler, the Association's first female president.

Saturday, October 23rd was National Make a Difference Day, an annual day of giving back to the community. More than 50 REALTOR®, Affiliate Members, and their families showed up with hoes, shovels, and rakes ready to work. Each team tackled a section of the 17 1/2 acre cemetery.

Special thanks to County Commissioner Adriann Barboa who provided coffee and all the members who spent their morning with us!

2. Members can still Make a Difference by Promoting “Get Screened” 

GAAR is partnering with Casa Esperanza and the American Cancer Society to promote "Get Screened" to our members who in turn can promote the initiative to their clients. Click for Details
