Request for Membership Dues Reduction
Machar welcomes all who wish to be members, regardless of ability to pay. Dues, Tuition, and Contributions support our community by paying its expenses. In extreme situations (family health crisis, loss of employment, etc.), reduced membership dues/tuition may be granted. These decisions are kept strictly confidential, and only the Dues Committee is involved. If you have a financial challenge that prevents you from paying your full dues, please request the Machar Membership Dues/Tuition Reduction Request Form from our Congregational Administrator at administrator@machar.org.
