Benefits to the Organization
When the IFAC applies for grants, we often need to indicate our level of support in the community for our activities. Having a strong membership shows funding agencies that we have good community support.
By having a membership fee that is renewed annually, the IFAC is able to maintain an up-to-date, accurate list of members.
Even though our membership fee is only $10, this small amount adds up when we have many members. We have regular bills to pay such as insurance and banking fees. Membership money helps with these ongoing operating expenses.
