How to Pay Dues
Sign up for Monthly Dues via ActBlue
We kindly suggest a monthly donation of $2, but please feel empowered to pay as much or as little as you can.
Why Monthly Dues?
Receiving monthly dues helps us maintain a clean, active membership roster, which will help GAPIMNY’s Steering Committee keep in better contact with its members and to operate more strategically as an organization. Monthly dues will give us a better sense of how to budget our activities.
