Through the efforts of community managers and community volunteer leaders, we are happy to report that over $60,000.00 was raised for the 2016 Buck-a-Door Campaign.
With the Buck-A-Door donation program, community associations can fund CLAC efforts by contributing just one dollar per residence each year. CLAC relies on support from millions of people who own homes in California community associations to continue its work on their behalf.
When attending community meetings and presenting the program to board members, there are always questions raised by boards concerning political motivations of CLAC. That is why it’s so important for managers to become more involved with CLAC and better understand what the legislative action committee does.
Managers who are more involved with CLAC can better educate their boards of directors and get the support needed for this important program. It’s also beneficial for managers to update their board members in their monthly reports to show how pending litigation monitored by CLAC can impact community associations and its residents.
CLAC has numerous resources available to members who want to stay informed and educate their board. We encourage managers and board members to sign-up for the CLAC-TRAC email newsletters. The following resources are also available to create awareness of CAI-CLAC’s efforts. These can be found under the “Donate” tab on CLAC’s website:
- What is CLAC? Flyer – this includes information about CLAC, its missions and goals.
- 12 Reasons to Donate to CLAC – information on what CLAC is and what it does.
- Recent CLAC Accomplishments – recent activities and successes of CLAC’s legislative activity for the benefit of California’s Community Associations.
- Buck-A-Door Pledge Form – contains information on how to support CLAC via the Buck a Door program.
- Board Resolution for CLAC Contribution – a resolution boards can adopt to support CLAC through annual contributions
