Title: Motion to Create a 100@25 Club Affiliate Referral Program
Motion: The Fundraising Committee moves this motion before this honorable Executive Committee to create a county affiliate referral program that makes a referral payment for a new recurring donor in that county to the 100@25 Club as follows:
- County affiliates where a recurring donor is located will receive a referral payment of $25 after the recurring donor's 4th consecutive payment into the 100@25 Club.
The LPF treasurer will disburse corresponding payments every 6 months to qualifying county affiliates.
Expenditures are to be limited to $2,000 annually unless further funds are authorized by the Executive Committee.
Program applies for new recurring donors who join on or after January 1, 2022.
For an affiliate to participate in this program, they must request a unique referral link to invite recurring donors to.
One referral payment per qualified recurring donor of at least $25 per month who has not been a recurring donor of at least $25 per month within one year of their join date.
Discussion: A simple referral program with county affiliates who recruit new members of the 100@25 Club. This is meant to incentivize county affiliates to integrate 100@25 Club activities such as club event announcements and "pin" presentations to club members present.
Financial liability: No financial liability at program start.
