PUA Opens Gates To Affiliate Program

Patriot Union of America (PUA), a citizen’s advocacy seeking to build the nation’s largest nonpartisan union of US citizen voters and pioneering home to a planned national Public Initiative Bill (PIB) system, announced plans to begin offering an Affiliate program to nonprofit organizations and select businesses and activists.

"From day one, the PUA was designed to be an umbrella organization for serving a myriad of nonprofit organizations involved with the political process, or who want to be," said founder Xelan Bonn. "The idea is to have a vehicle that every legitimate organization or activist can access and that gives them the capability to consolidate efforts, leverage resources, and strengthens "common ground" political positions as well as voter number strength by bringing them all together under one umbrella," he said. 

"The PUA Affiliate program is much more than a simple revenue building tool for Affiliates, its a vast resource that will take their small organizations and help give them the power of a giant organization that they can utilize to widen both their offerings and capabilities," Bonn explained. "And for large organizations, the benefits are equally impressive, beginning with the ability to more easily share projects and resources for large scale projects to free up critical budget dollars." he said. "If is has to do with the "common good" in the political arena, it has to do with the PUA," he said.

Affiliates will soon be able to offer PUA memberships to their own members and earn a portion of the PUA membership fees for their own operations. Other benefits include access to the entire PUA membership for submitting ideas, issues, projects, and drives as well access to a the PUA network for extending operational scope and capability.

"How many times has a new or existing organization said to themselves, 'we don't have the know-how, or skills, or people, or systems  or budget in place to do that task'? noted Bonn. "By becoming a member of the PUA, they immediately gain access to the entire network of PUA Affiliates and can ask for help---and best of all, probably get it!" he said. "For example, what if six organizations wanted to do something about global warming but on their own they couldn't make a difference, yet using our IS-ONE system, they would be able to play off each other's strengths and weakness to combine resources and achieve objectives as a team---that's excitingly cool." said Bonn. "And best of all, it's a free to our Affiliates," he said.

The PUA's planned Issue Support Open Network Efficiency system (IS-ONE), will be a online portal for Affiliate to access and utilize on a self-serve, intuitive platform. Organizations accessing the system will be able to share tasks with other like-minded organizations with many of the same goals and positions in order to leverage their resources and results.

"Right now, it's every dog hunting for his own bone instead of working together and hunting in packs," said Bonn. "Under the IS-ONE system, everybody involved wins---especially America!'

Affiliates will keep their current membership roles intact, as the PUA does not compete or offer PUA memberships without Affiliate sponsorship. A portion of the PUA membership fees goes directly to help the Affiliate sponsor. The online tracking system will automatically log visitors to the PUA Web site from an Affiliate site and will credit the Affiliate will a percentage of the membership or donation to help cover the Affiliate's costs in marketing the PUA.
