We are #NAIFAproud of the work that NAIFA-Washington President, Chris Bor, LUTCF, CLU, ChFC has done to move the membership needle in 2021. In addition to his work in making Washington the top state in membership growth, he has also brought a few 100% Agencies to NAIFA. Chris has set goals for his team and they have worked their tails off to met them. He states, "We just put membership first, it's the first thing on the agenda at every meeting. Membership comes first, everything else is secondary."  This commitment to membership growth has earned him the 2021 Q1 Membership Hard Hat Award.

Chris attributes much of their growth to an initiative driven by Jim Lusk, CFP, CLU, ChFC. The state was facing a legislative issue on the subject of Long Term Care. NAIFA-Washington offered educational sessions that required NAIFA membership in order to participate.

Chris is Regional Vice President, West for Kansas City Life in Spokane. A loyal NAIFA member since 1989, Chris formerly resided in California and served on the NAIFA-California Board of Trustees for many years.

This new NAIFA award will be given quarterly to NAIFA leaders and members who are putting in the hard work necessary to grow membership. Glenn Crawford was the inaugural recipient in Q4 2020.

Congratulations Chris! You make us #NAIFAproud...keep the momentum going!
