Just in time for the holidays, several members of ARAPAC — the American Rental Association’s (ARA) political action committee — picked up some top-shelf items that will help make the season even merrier and brighter through the 2023 ARAPAC Virtual Fundraiser.

The fundraiser, which ran from mid-November to mid-December, raised nearly $9,000 for ARAPAC. Through their raffle ticket purchases, members who participated in the fundraiser reinforced ARAPAC’s mission of supporting pro-business Congressional candidates — regardless of party affiliation.

Take a look at what these ARAPAC supporters received through the fundraiser:

Grand prize package to The ARA Show™ 2024 in New Orleans (includes airfare, lodging, two full show registrations and tickets to the ARAPAC reception at the show): Rachel O’Brien, ECP-SM, J&F Reddy Rentals, St. Louis Park, Minn.

Limited edition Yeti Cosmic Lilac cooler and drinkware package: Terry Turner, CERP, All Occasions Party Rentals, Knoxville, Tenn.
