    Posted 01-04-2020 09:04 AM
    Hello! I was looking through the savers guide app this morning, that was previously a benefit for NAEYC members. It's telling me that the membership is no longer valid & to login through the organization's website. However, nothing on the NAEYC website comes up when you search for the savers guide. 

    I found the instructions on how to access; but you can't even search it. Was the savers guide benefit discontinued?

    I have been having the same issue. It was such a great service.

    it was probably the only benefit members in our affiliate can use because we just don't have anything else 😬

    Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately the very low usage of the program combined with the high cost to provide it resulted in NAEYC not being able to continue with this program. We continue to review programs that would be of benefit to our members such as the Office Max and Hertz discount programs and always welcome suggestions.

    Thank you for replying -- that is very unfortunate. Especially for those in small states that do not have local "perks" for benefits.

    I am sad that this was discontinued. It was a very good benefit. I stumbled upon it while looking for something else on the website this past summer. I hadn't even known about it until then. As a member of MOAEYC's board, I was really hoping to publicize this benefit in Missouri to encourage new membership. How was I not aware of this benefit until I accidentally found it? Even after I knew about it, I had a hard time finding it the next time I looked for it. I also tried searching the site without luck.
