Committee Chair: Ron Geren (602)569-9645 Ron@SpecsandCodes.com
Awards
This committee recognizes the talent, achievements, and notable contributions to the construction industry that support the purpose of CSI. It is essential to recognize those members and others who contribute time and effort generously. An award that conveys gracious and grateful recognition of extraordinary effort will encourage continuing contributions. An awards program intensifies member’s interest, gains new members, develops new talent, and stimulates interest in CSI’s growth. Members that possess good writing skill (for the purpose of writing the application of awards) and those strong in public relations are encouraged to join this committee.

Calling
The Phoenix Chapter CSI has a calling committee. It is comprised of approximately 12 members. They have volunteered to make calls to a portion of the total membership roster. Each month, the Chairperson gives each committee member a description of the upcoming meeting with any changes in telephone numbers for their group. The committee member is responsible to call each member of their group, describing the meeting and taking RSVP’s or giving the RSVP number to the member. It is a great way to stay in touch and to encourage attendance.

Fundraising
Every organization needs funds to operate from. This committee’s task is to present a variety of opportunities for our members to participate in. The challenge is to make these options as interesting and as exciting as possible while providing value to our members. Do you have a special knack at fundraising; have you been involved in a successful fundraising activity for another organization? This just may be your niche.
