Stay tuned for all the ways we’re showing our appreciation this month!

Each week, we'll be hosting sessions, engaging in discussions, and creating opportunities to connect with fellow TD professionals. And while you're doing all of that, you'll have the chance to earn points that translate into raffle entries to win a free ATD gift.
How points work: Every point you earn = one raffle entry. Here's how to earn them:
Attend a Member Month event: 5 points per event
Comment on a post tagged #ATDMemberMonth2026 in the community: 1 point per comment (up to 5 points per thread). There will be 1-2 qualifying posts each week, and links will be added to this post once they are live.
Participate in the Community AMA (Week of March 23rd): 2 points per comment/reply (up to 10 points)
At the end of each week, all entries go into a randomizer, and one winner walks away with a piece of ATD swag. At the end of March, all your entries from the entire month get pooled for a grand prize drawing for an Ember Mug!
Members who earn 50 or more points by the end of the month will also receive the exclusive 2026 Member Month MVP virtual badge in the community!
