Affiliate membership at MNN connects your business to thousands of local nonprofits that need your services and products. Affiliate membership allows you to:
We welcome any business that provides service or products to Massachusetts nonprofit organizations. The business does not need to be located in Massachusetts. Nonprofit organizations that would like to access these benefits can opt to sign-on as a Standard, Advantage, or Premium member, rather than a nonprofit member.
No. On January 1, 2015, all MNN affiliate members will be automatically transitioned to the Standard affiliate level. You will receive Standard benefits, which are very similar to what you previously received, until your membership expires. When your membership is up for renewal in 2015, you will have the option to choose between the three, new tiers (Standard, Advantage, and Premium).
That’s great! If you update and renew your membership early, your membership will be extended for a year from your current end date, and you’ll be able to access all of the expanded benefits right away.
Our popular online directory is visited by hundreds of nonprofit and business professionals each month. And, as part of the new affiliate program, the directory has been significantly upgraded to increase web traffic and make it easier for nonprofits to find the goods and services you offer.
