Encourage Others to Join
By increasing our membership, we will be able to have:

- more and better benefits to offer you and other retirees
- more social opportunities where you will get a chance to reacquaint with long lost coworkers
- more and deeper group discounts
Each One, Reach One
In our “Each One, Reach One” campaign, we ask that you reach out to just one fellow retiree to get them to join RESDC (more than one is great too!). You can refer them to our website for more information, or optionally print out the RESDC Brochure to hand to a fellow retiree; the application form and instructions on how to sign up are included.
Our staff is standing by to help you in this effort. If you identify a friend or former coworker you have talked to about joining RESDC, our staff would be happy to send them information, including a membership application. Simply call the office at (619) 688-9229 or (888) 688-9229, or email resdc@resdc.net, and let us know the name and mailing address of the person you’ve talked to about joining.
RESDC works diligently to spread the word to retiring County employees, but many have already fallen through the cracks. We need your assistance to reach out to as many retirees as possible. Please join us in our efforts to grow our membership!
