NARFE will once again sponsor a membership drive this year from September 1 through December 31, 2021. Current members can earn $10 for each new member they recruit, as well as other prizes (click here for complete rules and information). As we continue to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, however, the health and safety of our members is paramount, so please recruit safely to minimize the potential risk of exposure to COVID-19 and the Delta variant.

Use email and your federation and chapter websites to publicize the membership drive. Use Facebook, Twitter, and e-mail to promote the benefits of membership and drive prospective members to this link on NARFE.org where they can learn more about membership and join. You can even use a device that is sometimes forgotten in today’s digital age: the telephone! And remember, provide prospects with your NARFE member ID number so you get credit when they join.

To assist with your recruiting efforts, please visit the NARFE Membership Recruitment Resources page to access tools to help you communicate the value of NARFE membership, including email templates, ads with testimonials, presentation slides and a script, an “elevator speech” to help you quickly explain the benefits of NARFE membership, and much more.

If you have questions, please email us at membership@narfe.org or call us at (800) 456-8410 (press 1 for Membership). Thank you for your support and for helping to keep NARFE growing and thriving.
