BAR Community Services Committee has chosen three organizations to partner with for REALTORS® Are Good Neighbors Week. Each organization was selected as a way to give back to those who do so much in and for our communities.

We need volunteers for the following organizations: Raleigh's Place, Jones Valley Teaching Farm, and the American Cancer Society

Raleigh's Place--June 3rd at 7:45 am we will serve breakfast at Raleigh’s Place, an organization who supports foster homes in Chilton County.
Jones Valley Teaching Farm- June 7th from 9 am to 12 pm we will help on the farm at Jones Valley Teaching Farm where they use food as a foundation for young people to lead, create, and grow a healthy future for themselves and their community
American Cancer Society- June 8th at 5:3O pm we will serve dinner to patients and their families at the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge

Join the Birmingham Association of REALTORS® as we raise awareness about Fair Housing rights within the LGBTQ+ community. BAR will participate in the Central Alabama Pride Parade on Saturday, June 10th and will have a booth at Central Alabama PrideFest on Sunday, June 11th. This is an excellent opportunity to engage with the community and provide Fair Housing education and resources tailored to the needs of LGBTQ+ individuals. This is a great way to show our commitment to ensuring everyone has equal access to safe and fair housing.

REMINDER - FREE CE IN 2023!

BAR members will have access to FREE CE (3HR) in 2023. BAR will be offering more than 40 CE classes "LIVE IN-PERSON" in 2023.

(FREE CE does not apply to online ce classes, the ce shop, colibri real estate, the career academy of real estate, designations, certifications and speciality classes).

Cancellation Policy: All cancellations must be in writing and emailed to phillip@birminghamrealtors.com a minimum of 48 hours prior to the class start date and time.
