NFRC’s CEO, Jim Benney, announced two special initiatives to
help celebrate the organization’s silver anniversary this year.
During the opening session of the 2014 Spring Committee Week Meeting in
Memphis, Tenn., Benney discussed plans for the NFRC 25th Anniversary Builder Insert and the NFRC 25th Anniversary Student
Film Contest.
The NFRC 25th
Anniversary Builder Insert will be a special section in Builder magazine’s July issue.
Builder is one of the top magazines for
the home building industry, reaching more than 100,000 readers every month.
The
insert will consist of editorial content from NFRC as well as advertorial and
advertisement content from NFRC members.
Ad space in the insert will be
available to NFRC members at a discount of more than 50 percent off regular
rate-card prices. Benney informed meeting participants that NFRC and Builder will issue a joint letter soon
with full details.
The second sponsorship
opportunity Benney announced is a student film contest, designed to creatively
highlight NFRC’s role in helping homeowners, architects, and others make
informed choices about fenestration to meet their energy efficiency goals.
NFRC
will screen the top three films at the fall 2014 Membership Meeting and post
them to NFRC’s website. NFRC will send more information to members about this
contest and special low-cost sponsorship opportunities following the spring
meeting.
