Membership & Benefits

One membership. A whole household. A network on five continents.

Together and Stronger membership brings the buying power of a very large community to the everyday life of every family with a foreign-born story — people born abroad, whatever their status, US citizens born abroad, the US-born children of foreign-born parents, and their families, relatives and friends.

How membership works

Membership is held by the household. Every adult receives a member card, printed at home and carried on the phone, and children under eighteen are always covered free of charge.

Your card opens the full catalogue of member programmes, the free services that are open to everyone, and the network of regional houses that answer in your languages wherever your family lives.

Join online in a few minutes — no paperwork and no question about immigration status

Your member card

The member card identifies you to partners at the counter, online and by phone. It carries a verification code so that partners can confirm membership in seconds.

About the member card

Ninety-nine programmes in twelve areas of life

The catalogue is organised around the life members actually live: the flight home, the pharmacy counter, the money sent to family, the job search, the home, the car and the celebrations that bring a family together.

New partners are added as each agreement is signed, and every programme page shows its status plainly — live, or opening soon.
