TIME

Learn, Engage, Participate

As a member, you can spend time at the Society, learning more about our philosophy by attending courses like "The Foundations of Ethical Culture"; attending Sunday programs and other events during the week and taking advantage of all the Society has to offer.

 

TALENT

Share Your Skills and Interests

You may want to volunteer on committees and projects; work at co-sponsored events, manning the NYSEC information table, ushering or collecting donations; or propose programs and ethical actions for the Society to get involved in.

 

TREASURE

Annual Pledge Committment

Members are asked to make and fulfill a financial pledge each year, in order to maintain membership. Member pledges sustain the people, facilities, and programs of the Society.  We suggest that members give at least  2-4% of their yearly income.

 

Pledging percentages distribute the costs of community membership more fairly than a flat membership fee. Members making less money or struggling with unusual financial circumstances can elect to give an amount that makes sense to them. And members can increase pledges as their circumstances change or as the Society becomes more meaningful to them.

 

We understand that each member gives as generously as possible based on their circumstances and financial ability.  Pledges are accepted by check, credit card or through gifts of stock, and can be made in a lump sum or in installments throughout the year.

 

Membership pledges are tax-deductible.
