This award is to recognize those who have made an extraordinary impact on their community through volunteer work.

  1. Nominees must be members of the Northwest Montana Association of REALTORS® in good standing.
  2. Nominees should have contributed to a program that improves the livability of a community. Those activities aren't limited to real estate of housing issues. 
  3. Nominees should have made a significant contribution of personal time, but contributions of money, materials, or other resources will be considered by the judges as well. 
  4. Nominees will be judged on level of personal contribution, impact of personal contribution, broadness of impact, and the project's suitability as a role model for other REALTORS®
  5. The award is intended to recognize individual contributions, not association-or company-wide efforts. However, if an individual can be singled out as instrumental to the success of a group effort, he or she is eligible. If the achievements of two people (such as a married couple or co-founders of an organization) absolutely cannot be separated, they can enter as a pair and their entry will be considered as one entry.

  7. Nominees should be able to document the results of their individual involvement through published reports and/or testimonials from the organization they served or the people they helped. 
  8. Nominations must be on this form to be considered.
  9. REALTORS® may nominate themselves or may be nominated by someone else, such as another NMAR member, MAR or, the community organization they served.
