Paying It Back & Forward to Our Members

While the base fee of $250 annually is affordable for most, there will be non-profits or small businesses with limited budgets that find it out of their reach. In keeping with our committment to support each other, $2 from each Lifetime Membership fee and $15 from each $250 Premium Advertising advertising fee will be placed into a 'Member's Assistance Fund'. Members with limited resources may apply for up to $200 assistance for their annual advertising fee, and any assistance given does not detract from their patronage dividend. This allows members to support each other, simply by advertising through the cooperative. We will also accept donations into this fund.

This fund will be set up for future project that meet the goals of the cooperative. While still under discussion, awaiting member input, a minimum of $5 from each $250 advertising fee will go into this fund, with the intent to supply forgivable loans or grants to projecs by members that meet the overall goals of the cooperative.
