The M-AD budget for 2022 was approved at the recent District House of Delegates meeting. It includes a moratorium on dues for 2022. So, there will be no District dues included in your membership invoice that is due in 2022.
The discussion of this topic included consideration of the fact that we have been unable to provide the services that you deserve and are accustomed to during the pandemic (such as conventions and in-person education), and the fact that with events cancelled for 2021 we will finish the year with a funding surplus that is greater than the expected annual dues collection. The Board determined that it is appropriate to waive District dues for all members of the Mid-Atlantic District for the next dues cycle.
For those so inclined, if you still want to contribute to the cause, you can make a tax deductible donation to the M-AD by clicking the ‘Donate’ button on the District website (or mail a check to the Treasurer).
