TWO TYPES OF MEMBERSHIP
Amaterra believes that it is important to provide free memberships. Activating your membership immediately helps us in two ways. First, it encourages us by knowing that people support our work. Second, an anonymous donor has agreed to contribute $3.00 to Amaterra for each membership activated. All members, of whatever category, will receive periodic email for updates of information about current activities.
Endowment Membership -----Make a contibution
Endowment members are those who contribute any amount. Ninety-five percent of all contributions are applied to our small grass roots projects. A very small portion of contributions pays for expenses such as web site costs, paper, stamps, etc. Amaterra has no paid staff and operates solely with volunteers.
To activate your membership in Amaterra please send us an email with your name and mailing address as your message to:
