NIAF AFFILIATE PROGRAM

In the May issue of the AMHS Notiziario, we announced a new affiliate program established by the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF), that allows members of other Italian American organizations to leverage the benefits of a national organization while still being affiliated with and involved with their respective organizations.

For the price of $25.00 per person, AMHS members will be affiliated with NIAF and will be given all of the membership benefits of a NIAF Associate Member (the cost of this membership outside of the affiliate program is $50.00!). This partnered affiliation will provide AMHS members with a monthly member newsletter, a membership card that includes the NIAF and AMHS logos, a yearlong subscription to Ambassador Magazine, access to the NIAF Member’s only section on www.NIAF.org, and a NIAF member lapel pin. Members would also gain access to certain discounts to various companies partnered with NIAF. If you are interested in joining in this new partnership, please fill out the NIAF Affiliate Member application form, which is included in the Notiziario.

AMHS will collect the names and email addresses of interested persons, as well as the $25.00, which is valid for one full year. Sarah Scott, AMHS 2nd Vice President-Membership, will maintain the names of members who join NIAF as an associate member. AMHS will submit your name and email address to NIAF on a quarterly basis; NIAF will subsequently invoice us for payment. NIAF will notify you directly when your associate membership becomes active, and will in turn send you a membership card.

NIAF will be responsible for notifying you when your membership is due to expire; you will notify AMHS if you want to renew your membership. If you have any questions on this program, please contact Maria D’Andrea, uva051985@comcast.net or Sarah Scott, sara_geco@yahoo.com.
