Membership dues fund access — but donations fund capacity. They're what allow the village to serve members who can't afford full dues, hire or retain an instructor, and grow the volunteer network. Here is what a sample of what your donation can cover:

$25 Covers the cost of the DMV background check for volunteers that will help transport members
$50 Covers the cost of a volunteer background check
$75 Covers the cost of the software platform that runs the village (per month)
$150 Subsidizes a scholarship membership for a neighbor who couldn't otherwise afford to join
$500 Covers wellness instructor fees for one month
Other- Any amount is appreciated
