All non-profit Societies, no matter how big or small, rely on funding and membership dues to sustain them. RCLAS is no exception, and we are by no means big.
At present, funding comes from two sources. First, we benefit from a very modest grant from the City of New Westminster (for which we’re exceedingly grateful). And second, we depend heavily on dues from members like you.
Without a growing membership base, we cannot sustain the activities that RCLAS has already initiated. We really need your help to keep the literary arts alive in our community.
When you become a member, you not only help us keep the torch lit for writers. You also help yourself.
Here are some of the benefits of an RCLAS membership:
