As an esteemed member of NCASLA, we greatly appreciate your ongoing support and participation. Today, we are reaching out to you with an important announcement regarding a necessary adjustment in our membership dues. Over the years, our organization has grown, attracting new members like yourself who share a common passion and drive for our mission. Together, we have created meaningful connections and made a tangible impact in our community. However, to sustain our growth and continue servicing each of our members, we find it imperative to reassess our financial resources. In recent times, the cost to service individual members has increased due to inflation and rising operational costs. As a result, it has become challenging to maintain the same level of service excellence without making any adjustments to our funding structure. To ensure the long-term stability, vitality, and effectiveness of our organization, we have made the decision to increase membership dues. We firmly believe that this adjustment in membership dues is essential for the sustainability and growth of our community. We have looked at the surrounding chapters and here is their fee structure for comparison:

Based on these figures and our current fee structure, our new membership fees are listed below:

We understand that you may have questions or concerns about this adjustment. Therefore, we invite you to submit comments for the board to review. This period will be open from June 8th to July 16th.

Your continued support and dedication have been invaluable to NCASLA, and we remain committed to providing you with the utmost value for your membership. By increasing the dues, we can ensure a sustainable future for NCASLA and maintain our ability to deliver exceptional services and benefits to each member.

We sincerely hope that you understand the necessity of this change and appreciate your cooperation in this matter. Together, we can continue to make a meaningful difference and foster a stronger, more vibrant community.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and commitment. We look forward to your continued involvement in NCASLA.

Warm regards,

Nancy Haywood
