GC Business Members are eligible to seek appointment as a member of the Board of Directors each year. In order to apply for the Board, a business partner must contribute $2,000 annually. If the annual membership fee is less than $2,000 the business member can provide approved in-kind services to equal or exceed the $2,000 amount needed to apply for the board.
For in-kind support to be recognized by the Board of Directors, a letter of intent must be submitted to the GC Board Chairperson and approved by the board. "In-kind" services are defined as those services needed to operate and maintain GC day-to-day operating expenses of the GC office and staff. Examples are office space, telephone, office supplies, computer equipment, internet access and printing.
Tax deduction for donation - GC is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. (application filed)
MEMBERSHIP PAYMENTS ACCORDING TO THE GC FISCAL YEAR January 1 - December 31
a) All business members will be invoiced according to the annual membership fee structure. GC membership is ongoing and will begin the month the payment is received.
b) Membership renewals are payable by December 31 for the upcoming fiscal year.
c) Business partners who join GC during the fiscal year will be billed the full amount for the full year. Payment for the next fiscal year will be pro-rated based on the number of months in membership. For example, if a company joins in May, (GOLD) membership fee is $2,000. Since they were members for 8 months, the renewal will be pro-rated to reflect only 2/3 of the full amount, or $1,333.33 for the second year.
