Refer a Friend Contest
Goals and Background
We'd like to see CFA grow to include even more active, community-minded members.
We've noticed that people who learn about the Club from people they trust and admire quickly become active CFA members. Many go on to host Club events.
Every year since the Club was founded, we've noticed that a special few make the effort to share their passion for the Club with friends. Without asking for recognition, these individuals act from the heart to help mold the vibrant CFA community that all Club members benefit from.
This contest is intended to recognize those special people who
actively contribute to the growth of the Club.
