Have You Renewed Your HRM-RI Membership for 2010?

Renew by March 15th to Retain Your Member Benefits

Membership in HRM-RI is on an annual basis, running from January 1st of one year to January 1st of the next year, regardless of the date when you originally joined. All HRM-RI memberships were up for renewal as of January 1, 2010, and renewal notices were mailed out late in 2009.

If you have not yet renewed your HRM-RI membership for 2010, please act quickly. You must renew by March 15, 2010 to keep your membership active and to continue your eligibility for member benefits. If you wish to renew but you did not receive a renewal notice, please contact us now.

SHRM members, please note: renewing your SHRM membership does not automatically renew your HRM-RI membership. Although HRM-RI is an affiliate Chapter of SHRM, the renewal process and dues payment for HRM-RI membership is independent of your SHRM membership renewal.

Special Offer for HRM-RI Members Who Are "In Transition"

If you were a paid member of HRM-RI in 2009 and you have not yet renewed your membership for 2010 because you are currently in transition between jobs, you may be eligible to have your HRM-RI membership extended through 2010 at no cost.

Please click here to send us a message explaining your current employment situation and requesting consideration for our special "in transition" membership offer.

2/21 - 2/28 Is America Saves Week

americasavesweek.orgIn this challenging economy, it may be difficult to encourage people to save for their retirement and their future goals. Despite the challenges, studies have shown that for most people saving is still possible.  With that in mind, we’d like to encourage you to join us in the America Saves campaign by participating in America Saves Week, which runs February 21 to 28.

The goal of America Saves Week is simple:  to encourage people to take financial action through saving, debt reduction, and wealth building.

Now is a critical time for all Americans to reduce consumer debt and save money. With families across the country struggling to cope with high unemployment, tighter credit and strained budgets, financial security is more important than ever. It doesn’t have to stop with America Saves Week; encouraging people to save should be a year-round goal.
