A message from the Foundation for East European Family History Studies
Dear Board of the Utah Jewish Genealogical Society,
The board of the Foundation for East European Family History Studies (FEEFHS) has a proposal that we believe will help everyone – your organization, your members, and FEEFHS as well.
Our 2023 conference is scheduled for three days in early August (2-4). The online portion of the conference will offer 29 classes taught by lecturers and researchers from around the globe. There will be two simultaneous tracks and one special presentations. In addition, there will be 19 on-demand classes available at the start of the conference.
The regular price of the online conference is $200. But here’s the deal:
If you would like, we provide a special code for you to make available to your members. The code will qualify them for the $150 rate right up to the day before the conference. As well, for every attendee who registers with your code, we will pay 10 per cent – $15 – to your organization.
After the conference, we will send a list of the people who registered through your organization, and pay the money we owe. And yes, feel free to send the discount code to anyone you choose! The more, the merrier.
Every registrant will be given access to those 48 class recordings until the end of the year.
Since 1992, FEEFHS has been focused on providing information to help people discover their Central and East European heritage, especially in the countries that were once part of the Russian, Austro-Hungarian, and German Empires.
This promotion will make more people aware of what we do, help you offer a special deal to your members, and help them in their research. It would be a win-win-win.
The discount code assigned to your organization is: qip60q
Thanks for considering this!
Milan Pohontsch,
on behalf of the Foundation for East European Family History Studies
