Social and Civic Activities

REBNY'S SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The Board's social and professional activities complement one another. The Annual Banquet, spring and fall golf and tennis outings, membership lunches and dinners, and other such occasions give REBNY members the chance to enjoy good company, make contacts and obtain information. Friendships made at these events often become meaningful in our members' careers and social lives through the years.

REBNY'S CIVIC ACTIVITIES
Ultimately, the product our industry sells is New York City; any contributions REBNY members and staff make toward improving New York also enhance the well-being of our industry.

Committed REBNY members have:

• Created a non-profit corporation to assist the city's effort to serve the homeless
• Sat on community boards
• Organized fire safety seminars
• Sponsored liberal arts college graduates training to become teachers in the public schools,
  served as Principals-for-a-Day in those schools and provided books and other supplies
  needed by the Board of Education.
• Served on the boards our city's major cultural and health care institutions
  These are only some of the Board's civic efforts to elevate New York's reputation and make our town a better place in which to live and work. Through their public-spirited work, dedicated REBNY members have been responsible for attracting investment to New York and spurring its renaissance as an international business capital. Through its committees and social functions the Real Estate Board offers its members many opportunities to serve their city and their industry through civic endeavors.
