This new membership and dues model was drafted by the ReShare Steering Committee to inform FY23-24 dues. The Steering Committee invites input from current and potential members of the ReShare Community to improve the model for the future. The FY24-25 model will be based on input received via this form through Friday, December 15, 2023.
The modifications to ReShare’s dues and membership benefits aim to recognize and reward project champions, foster a balanced influence aligned with investment levels, and support the sustainability of our project.
Here are the key features of the new membership dues structure:
- Multiple levels of membership
- Categories based on organization type
- Equitable influence
- Software development and maintenance fundraising campaigns for realistic development pathways
- Regular voting for product enhancement cycles
- Allocation of points for centrally-funded development
