NEW VOLUNTEER POINTS SYSTEM

Cleveland Area Mensa is launching something new—and we think you’re going to like it.


Starting this September, members will have the chance to earn points, recognition, and prizes just for doing the kinds of things that help make CAM fun, welcoming, and full of life. Whether you’re attending events, hosting a game night, bringing a guest, or submitting a newsletter article, your efforts will now be counted and celebrated through CAM’s brand-new Volunteer Incentive Program. A full list of point-earning activities will be posted in the Facebook group and in Graffiti.
