The "Americans for Freedom" Coalition Membership is one of the most exciting features of AFF. We offer the ability for Political Campaigns, Republican Clubs, Republican Executive Committees, College & Young Republican Organizations, Veterans, Tea Party & Grass Roots organizations to register as a AFF Coalition Member to cross network together.
In each section of our web site we have made a “AFF Section Introductory Video” for your review.

We have designed this program to allow every independent group from every city to join our network as a AFF Coalition member. For example, the Tampa Tea Party and Orlando Tea Party may join as two separate organizations. All Grass Roots and Political Organizations we welcome to join. There is no cost to set up your AFF Coalition web page and be a member. All AFF members are allowed to be members of multiple AFF Chapters and AFF Coalition groups. In fact, we encourage it.
AFF Coalition Benefits:
It is FREE
Post & Market your own organization’s web site (up to 4 web site links) in AFF
Promote Your Social Media Channels: Your FaceBook, Twitter, and Youtube accounts are automatically linked and promoted. As AFF expands its web site traffic, millions of grass roots activists will suddenly have access to your Coalition page, organization and contact information and all of your Social Media channels.
Post Your Own Articles & Videos: You may Post articles, videos, or link third party articles that appear in your own AFF pages as well on the home page of AFF and in the Articles and Video sections of our web site. Your content is promoted to AFF national members with your name and linked organization under each post. Our members can comment about your article or video as well.
Increase Your Support Base: We have designed for AFF Coalition Members to have the option to select if you wish to allow anyone to join your AFF Coalition page automatically, or you can pre-approve them first. You may also select administrative privileges to assign to your own members. You can assign who can post events, articles and videos under your organization’s name that will post into the national network. We suggest opening your full AFF page to the public so that you may easily attract new supporters. AFF visitors and general members will be seeking to join the grass roots organizations in a city near them. So as AFF grows, so should your AFF Coalition members into your unique group. Your groups size will rest on you as well. How your promote your organization, how many updates and posts you make, and the beginning size of your existing group. Coalition members are not required to register all of their internal members with AFF. However, they should be allowed to join your AFF page since they are already a member.
Private AFF Wall: We have designed your own AFF Coalition membership wall where the general public, or only your members can read your groups message wall. We currently do not have an email system. However, we suggest to use a Facebook Fan Page or your web site where you can also mass email your Coalition members as well. New members can sign up for your AFF Coalition Group, then access your Facebook and Twitter networks all from AFF. Now you have your members cross tied into your group network.
Events: When you post an event by your Organization your announcement will be posted where all AFF Members will be able to access your planned event nation wide. We encourage all Tea Party and 912 groups to announce their meetings, rallies and fundraisers in AFF. If your organization is planning to protest against an elected representative’s office, then you will be able to announce the details and network with other AFF Coalition groups, AFF Chapters, and AFF individual Members to give you instant support. So instead of having 100 people protesting the office of a Socialist Democrat, we would like to help your organization rally 1,000 people at that event by announcing your event through our entire network. AFF’s goal is to help support your organization to rally 1,000+ activists that will surround the physical building of an elected representative so that each rally becomes a national news event.
Public Office Meet & Greets: We allow elected leaders or those who are running for public office at the city, county, county school board, state and federal levels to register their organization under the AFF Coalition category of “Political”. We are testing this feature to help offer free town meetings, public appearances, rallies and even political fundraisers for everyone. This is designed to help new Grass Roots candidates enter the race for public office. AFF does not decide who these individuals will be. It will be a free market service where everyone will be welcome to register.
You can now promote your Political Fundraisers, Meetings and more in Americans For Freedom under our "Events. section. To post an event, you must first register as an individual. Next, create your Group Page. Then, you will be able to post all of your events, articles, videos, and social media for FREE.
Polls and Other Upgrades: AFF is already planning to launch a online polling program for the web site use and for its Coalition members to use. The expected release date for these features is December 2011.
