Discount Coupon Helps Build Chapters
ASHI offers a $30 discount coupon for new members who join the national society and a chapter at the same time. Here’s how it works: The chapter downloads a coupon for the new member, discounts first-year chapter dues by $30 and sends the coupon to headquarters to be reimbursed. Use the coupon as an incentive to build the chapter and the society.
