Greetings ACEC/MA Members,
The ACEC PAC is the engineering industry's primary tool for political engagement at the national level. Supported by engineering professionals from across the country, the sole purpose of ACEC/PAC is to elect candidates to the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate who support policies and legislation favorable to the engineering industry and our clients.
The ACEC National staff work extremely hard to track and provide input on legislation that is important to our industry. If you haven’t been on the ACEC National website recently…you should check it out. There is an Advocacy Action Center under R3 Initiative-Rescue, Recover, Rebuild with details on the advocacy ACEC is doing on behalf of all of our firms.
The ACEC PAC gives us a seat at the table so we really need you all to donate to support this crucial communications effort.
ACEC/MA’s goal for the PAC is to raise $23,822 (same as 2019 goal) and we need your help to reach our 2020 goal, ACEC National launched two creative PAC Fundraisers:
- World’s Greatest Golf Tournament where you host a foursome between now and Sept 7, 2020 and send the results to national for prizes.
- ALSO … for non-golfers there is a wonderful alternative – the ACEC/PAC Walk for Infrastructure.
- Both of these events are easy and fun ways to support this important endeavor.
AS always there is also the ACEC PAC sweepstakes. The summer sweepstakes is $25 a ticket and the Fall Sweepstakes is $200 a ticket. It is very easy and secure to donate on line.
And as further enticement, ACEC/MA will host our usual PAC raffle with prizes (virtually): if you buy an ACEC PAC raffle ticket, you are automatically entered into our raffle. So you have two chances to win!! (If you have already contributed for 2020 you will automatically be put into the ACEC/MA Raffle!)
Prizes from the ACEC/MA raffle and cash from ACEC National’s Raffles.
- As the LEADERS of ACEC/MA we are all expected to participate in the PAC. We expect 100% participation by the Board.
- Massachusetts has met its’ goal for many years, and we want to continue that trend!
To achieve our goal, Robin Greenleaf, Dennis Coffey, and Lisa Brothers have assembled a group of prizes to be awarded during a VIRTUAL RAFFLE on October 15, 2020. Here’s how our local program works:
- For every $25 contribution you make to the ACEC PAC, we will automatically enter one ticket for you in the ACEC/MA prize drawing in October.
- If you use the attached Summer OR Fall Sweepstakes form to make your PAC contribution, you will be entered in the ACEC PAC national drawing for cash and other prizes. These contributions will also count towards your ACEC/MA raffle tickets. For example, a $200 National Sweepstakes tickets gives you four ACEC/MA raffle tickets.
- You can send your contribution directly to ACEC in Washington by email, fax, regular mail or on the ACEC PAC website. We are happy to assist you as well. We will know you contributed and will automatically enter your tickets in to the ACEC/MA raffle drawing.
- You do not need to be present to win either the ACEC/MA prizes or the ACEC PAC (national) prizes.
- The ACEC/MA PAC Raffle will be held VIRTUALLY on Oct 15. We'll send Event Details in the Fall.
The ACEC/MA prizes include the following:
- Microsoft – Surface Laptop 3 – 13.5" Touch-Screen – Intel Core i7 – 16GB Memory – 256GB Solid State Drive (Latest Model) – Matte Black ($1,600 value)
- Legal Seafood $250 gift card
- Amazon $250 gift card
- Amazon $500 gift card
- ProBeats Pro Totally Wireless Earphones ($250 value)
- REI $250 gift card
You can donate on the national website acec.org …under Advocacy/ contribute and you’ll see the raffles and activities just make sure you select Massachusetts on the map when you contribute so our Member Organization will get credit!
We HOPE this will be our ONE and ONLY fundraiser raffle to enable us to hit our goal once again this year!
Please contact Robin, Dennis or Lisa if you have any questions. We need your help to make our goal, and look forward to being able to virtually announce the winners in October.
Thank you for your support from your ACEC PAC Champions:
Lisa Brothers Robin Greenleaf Dennis Coffey
