In 2014, Illinois RPAC achieved the coveted "Triple Crown Award" for the first time in our fundraising history due in large
part to the "1,000 Points of Light" RPAC Ambassador Campaign which helped boost participation in RPAC from 22% in 2013
to 28% (goal) in 2014. In total, 128 IAR members pledged and secured at least 10 non-investors to invest at least $20 in RPAC.
Ambassadors who are also Major Investors or Capitol/Governor's Club members show a blue star by their photo/name.
We also thank these RPAC Ambassadors for reaching out to non-investors, educating about the importance of RPAC to the
business of real estate, calling and asking for others to give their "fair share" to RPAC.
