Did you know that since the ARRL partnered with Grouper just a few weeks ago, over 315 of our members have already joined Grouper and will soon be receiving checks to help offset the costs of their ARRL membership and ham radio activities?!

In case you missed our previous communication, Grouper provides benefits to ARRL members aged 65+ with eligible Medicare Advantage or Medicare Supplement plans for staying active in group activities. Maintaining social connections through group activities – like ARRL Affiliated Club meetings, hamfests, or helping other members put up an antenna – has proven health benefits, and these connections are especially important for older adults, who have above-average risks of social isolation.

Here is what Grouper offers eligible ARRL members:

• Easy sign-up with two simple questions and no personal information needed
• $50 initial payment just for having an eligible plan
• $20 every three months for reporting your in-person activities

Redeem your benefit here.

You can use your Grouper benefits to help cover the cost of any group activities that keep you socially connected and healthy. Participating in events and contests, engaging in public service training, building equipment, mentoring or being an instructor, or just having lunch with friends – any ARRL group activities that form friendships and connections qualify you for Grouper. If you’re 65+, you probably have these benefits available through your current health plan. And don’t worry—Grouper isn’t a health insurance company and will never try to sell you anything.

To see if you qualify for Grouper’s benefits, simply visit the Grouper website and sign up.

Grouper does not have access to ARRL member information (name, call sign, email), unless you provide it to them to take advantage of the paid benefit. And Grouper does not share your information except to service your benefit.
