Membership Renewal Form

American Association of University Women Oak Ridge Tennessee Branch AAUW promotes equity for women and girls, lifelong education, and positive societal change.

AAUW Membership Renewal 2008-2009

It’s dues paying time again! As you know, National dues have increased in recent years (an increase of $2 for the coming year), while State and Branch dues have held steady. Oak Ridge Branch dues have been $9 per year for more than ten years. Dues are the main source of income in our operating budget which includes the yearbook, newsletter, and meeting facilities. Members have come to expect and appreciate the level of quality we have achieved in our publications and general meeting programs. However, we must deal with the fact that income from dues is insufficient to maintain the excellence we have achieved. Instead of increasing Branch dues, the Board is asking for voluntary contributions to the operating budget. Your generous contributions last year made it possible to fund our operating budget for the current 2007-2008 fiscal year.

National dues for 2008-2009 are $49; State dues are $8, and Branch dues are $9, for a total of $66. Paid life members are exempt from payment of National dues but continue to pay State and Branch dues ($17). Fifty-year life members are exempt from payment of National, State, and Branch dues, although some continue to make contributions. Student Affiliate dues are $18.

When you pay dues for the coming year, you may contribute to the Educational Foundation Fund (the Branch makes a special appeal once a year) and the Local Education Projects Fund, as well as the Branch Operating Fund. Contributions to the Educational Foundation Fund are tax deductible, while contributions to the Local Education Projects Fund and the Branch Operating Fund are not tax deductible.

Please complete this form and return with your dues payment and contributions. Make your check payable to AAUW.
