Membership is by recommendation, ensuring quality partnerships.
There is no membership fee for members who contribute through in-kind support. Applicants are invited to submit an application form with a letter of recommendation from a Board member, or a motivation letter, in which case the Board will designate a Board member to follow up.

In all cases, a completed application form and a recommendation letter are required to form an application. Members are free to leave the association at any time.
