SAF Rewards Program

Check your point balance   ·   Redeem your points

2005 Member-Get-A-Member

Every time you recruit a new member, attend a national educational program, participate in a survey, or purchase SAF merchandise, you will earn points in the new SAF Rewards Program. The more you do…the more you earn…the more we reward you. You don't need to complete an enrollment form or even keep track of your points. Just maximize your membership. It's really that simple.

Getting started

Every member has a beginning balance of points. Members earn 500 points for joining!

Earning points is easy!

Earning points is fun and easy. Beginning January 1, 2003, you started earning points for maximizing your membership. You don't have to complete any forms or bother with a calculator to keep track.
