Are You On Linked-In?

Recent Study on Linked In Stated…..

Fewer boomers have been volunteering

Lately. One reason is their inability to find places where they can help out in a way that’s more meaningful – to themselves!

J

Plan Your Club’s Success

No one plans to fail . . . They just fail to plan. Planning for your club’s success will increase membership and retention.

S

Retention

Members will stay in a program when they are engaged and committed

However, they leave when factors discourage continued involvement

Nurturing relationships is worth

your time–the payoff is–they

become loyal members
