I'm not sure what the problem is here. As far as I can see, this is correct. The directions are kind of ambiguous though, it would be helpful to see the helper.php file.
<?php
include "helper.php";
try {
$results = $db->query(
"SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level FROM members"
);
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
$results = $results->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
//add code below this line
foreach($results as $result) {
send_offer($result("member_id"), $result("email"), $result("fullname"), $result("level"));
}

The problem your code has is the way it's grabbing array values. You have the right idea, you get the value of an array using the key, but you're using parentheses() instead of brackets[] which is causing the error.
