Center-Led Membership Outreach:
Many of our Centers are already launching local campaigns to increase the number of members in their centers.
Here’s how we’re supporting these efforts:
MKP USA will create a Google spreadsheet for your Center for use by your Membership Team.
Spreadsheet will contain:
- contact information for each man in the database associated with your local center
- current membership status for each of those individuals at the time of export
- link to a continually updated membership list for the center, pulled from the contribution software
To Participate:
Contact Keith Jarvis with contact information for a Membership point person and all team members. (We suggest a team of no more than 6 members)
The staff will put together your custom spreadsheet and ‘invite’ your team members to become editors of the spreadsheet.
Team Members can then use the detailed instructions in the brief videos below to update the spreadsheet.
The Online Membership Contribution Page
The Fine Print – Eligibility and Disclaimer Stuff:
Please review the main page for information regarding the matching funds and qualifying contributions.
Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ (we’ll add more as questions come up):
How do we ensure that our Center gets credit?
When using the online contribution page, a donor MUST SPECIFY the 50/50 split and your Center in order for that contribution to be accurately designated. The instructions are pretty clear – but if in doubt you can do it on their behalf. See videos above.
A man in our Center is credited to another Center – how do we fix that?
A man’s Center of affiliation and his designation of 50/50 split can be different if he chooses – so any change request must from FROM the individual. Simply have that man contact staff (changeme@mkp.org) to specify what he wants changed.
How can a someone join/contribute by check?
Instructions for sign by check found here – http://mkpusa.org/membership-pay-by-check/. Feel free to share that link by email if helpful.
What if a someone is already a member – can they make an additional donation?
Sure – if a previous contributor would like to make an additional contribution to take advantage of the matching funds, they can use the same contribution page or pay-by-check instructions above. Their contribution will not extend the membership period unless it is within 30 days of renewal, but it will absolutely count towards the matching funds!
