Affinity Programs
We would like to share some important information with you regarding the Fresno State Alumni
Association and the affinity program bill passed by the California legislature.
An affinity program is an agreement between the Fresno State Alumni Association and
a carefully screened partner to offer valuable services to alumni in areas such as
travel, insurance programs, student loan consolidation, or credit cards. In addition
to discounts for alumni, these affinity partners give a portion of the revenue these
programs generate back to your Fresno State Alumni Association in support of its mission,
while also providing sponsorship opportunities for other events and programs, such
as student scholarships.
Partner candidates compete for the privilege of marketing their services and products
to highly desirable Fresno State graduates. We select these partners based on the
quality, price, and appropriateness of their offerings and their reputation. We hope
our judgment is sound and you find any partner solicitations useful and relevant.
But, even if you don’t respond to such offers, you’re still helping us simply by allowing
us to continue sending these offers to you.
The Affinity Program bill was passed to allow the continuation of programs that greatly
support the Fresno State Alumni Association in its effort to provide the activities,
communications, and services you expect. The Fresno State Alumni Association is partially
state funded for its programs, therefore it relies on private contributions and affinity
programs for its development.
Choosing to not receive affinity program mailings from our trusted partners will not
remove you from other mailings the Fresno State Alumni Association or Fresno State may
send.
We remain committed to your privacy and comfort. If you choose to request that we
stop sending these offers to you, please click HERE to opt-out.
