Professional Report - 1st Quarter 2012

Thanks so much for your support. Without the commitments of time by volunteers and contributions from the broader membership base, we could never succeed with this important work.

Please consider the 1% Solution: It’s easy for you and good for the Foundation.

Many SIORs are pledging to donate 1% of their fees earned in SIOR Member to Member transactions to the Foundation. It’s a small amount off the top for you – but it’s a huge amount for the Foundation to use to continue its work. If the other broker chooses not to participate, don’t let that stop you from participating, donate 1% of your half of the fee!

The whole field of charitable giving has been very challenged by recent economic conditions, and we are not immune. We particularly appreciate your support during these trying times. Because of you, we are able to continue the Foundation’s good work.

Thanks again to all who have become donors over the last several years--your contributions to our industry have been important and critical to our growth. For those who have not yet become contributors I sincerely hope you will consider the Foundation worthy of your support. Believe me, we will offer you many opportunities!
