Be Rewarded When You Recruit!

Introduced in October 2010, the SOCM Every Member Get a Member Campaign is designed to inspire every member to recruit at least one new SOCM member. As a member-run organization, a growing support base is what keeps our social, economic and environmental justice work successful. As an added bonus, we're offering some very exciting rewards in recognition of your efforts. For chapter and committees, we've provided an overview of the rewards below. But we will also give away the prizes pictured below in a monthly drawing. Every time you recruit, you'll increase your chances of receiving one of the featured items through this exciting monthly drawing. We are so thankful for every single SOCM member! Please enjoy looking through these donated items, many offered by local nonprofits and crafters of Tennessee.
