Leigh Brown, CEO of RE/MAX Executive, is spearheading a nationwide fundraiser and training event on June 27.
Brown will teach the National Association of Realtors Code of Ethics class to participating associations across the U.S. Greater Chattanooga Realtors is sponsoring this event, which is a nationwide fundraiser for the Realtors Relief Foundation.
The NAR launched RRF within hours of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and raised more than $8.4 million to help surviving family members stay in their homes. Since then, the RRF has raised more than $25 million for victims of disasters, including wildfires, tornadoes, floods and hurricanes.
“Born out of my passion for the RRF, this National Ethics Day fundraising event is going to knock the ball out of the park,” Brown says. “I believe the Code of Ethics should be incorporated into your business every day, and this class is the first step.”
The National Code of Ethics class will be live-streamed from 1-4 p.m. GCR will host the class at Chattanooga State Community College, HSC Building, room 1085, to accommodate more attendees.
