NSAC and TD Insurance Meloche Monnex partners in an
E-mail Campaign

NSAC's Insurance affinity partner will be conducting an e-mail campaign this October. We think that the great insurance products that TD Insurance Meloche Monnex provides add some real value to your NSAC alumni status, so we want to give you the opportunity get a quote from them. You will also have the opportunity to win $50,000 for your home renovations (or $50,000 cash) just for getting a free, no obligation quote!

There will be an opportunity during the campaign to op-out of the follow-up phone call if you prefer, but we think you'll see some real savings in getting a quote for your insurance needs.
