Membership
For more than one hundred years the NAACP has been the leading advocate for social justice and equality for people of color, and we can proudly boast such because of our Members. Since 1909, the NAACP has been supported by countless members and has led the fight for freedom, justice and equality. Members forge a better future each and every day for men, women and children. NAACP membership makes a positive difference in the lives of Americans, and provides an opportunity to become an important part of a network of hundreds of thousands of advocates across the country affectionately known as "members."
Membership is the lifeblood of the NAACP. We depend on our member's generosity to insure the NAACPs independence. We are in the process of updating our membership rolls and we need your help. You, our members, are the critical link in managing a successful Branch. Your continued financial supports (membership dues) are essential to the maintenance of the Branch.
For each $30 membership we receive, $11.90 (40%) remains with the Branch. We are strictly a volunteer organization with no salaried employees. The forty percent of your dues that remain in the community pay for local programs (newsletter, office supplies, mail, phones, website, and scholarships). Your board members receive no financial support for mileage or travel to national meeting. Yet we remain on the forefront of the struggle for civil rights in Vancouver and Clark County.
If you are not sure of your membership renewal date, contact our Membership CO Chair, Ms. JaNae Jamison.
The Vancouver Branch has been serving this community since 1945. You can help us continue this powerful legacy.
Somebody answered the call for freedom, the call for equality, the call for a leveled playing field, the call for a better life. Even more importantly somebody answered the call to become a member!
