Help grow your French American Chamber of Commerce and Win an IPad!

February 1 marks the start of the French American Chamber of Commerce - Atlanta 2011 Membership Drive! Membership in the FACC grew by almost 30% last year, and we are hoping to see this trend continue in 2011. As such, we are implementing our first ever official Membership Drive. Over the next six weeks, we are asking YOU and our other members to help promote membership and participation in the FACC with your friends, colleagues and business contacts.

Under the new leadership at the FACC, we have seen a renewed focus on business and quality networking functions. We are very excited about the events we have planned for 2011, and we hope to be able to share these with an even wider audience. You will find information about our upcoming events attached to this email, as well as the new 2011 Membership Guide which will help you to reach out to potential new members (these can also be found on our website).  And the best part is, the person who refers the most new members to the FACC over the next six weeks will win a brand new Apple IPad!
