We launched the AABANY CIRC (Connections ∙ Involvement ∙ Relationship-building ∙ Community) Program in May, and we’re excited to share how it’s going. There are already more than 15 pods, and two prizes have been awarded! Sign-up is still open, so you can still be part of it!
It is an easy way to connect with other AABANY members and stay involved. The program brings members together in small pods. Think of it as a fun and low-pressure way to meet people and engage with AABANY as a group. CIRC is run by AABANY board members Jeffrey Mok and Gilyana Jones.

CIRC has a friendly, points-based component. Pods earn points for:
Meeting up
Attending AABANY events
Helping bring in new AABANY members
Posting about AABANY on social media
…and more
Each prize period, prizes go to pods based on points, along with some bragging rights. Our first two prizes were a group lunch and a meditation session. Also, CIRC participants get access to exclusive events!

Whether you’re a new, returning, or longtime AABANY member, CIRC is open to you. It’s designed to be easygoing, flexible, and what you make of it.
Ready to jump in? Sign up today to be placed in a pod and start connecting here.
