NATIONAL & CHAPTER DUES

Hello everyone! With the end of the semester rapidly approaching, I wanted to send out this reminder to make sure that you pay your national dues! Also, we finally have our chapter dues established for this semester! Please pay $20 to our KU-NAfME Venmo (@KUNAfME_C) by December 9th, 2022! Additionally, once you have paid both the national dues and chapter dues please fill out this quick Google Form with proof of payment.

If you are having trouble with any dues please do not hesitate to contact me or anyone on the executive team to get help! Also, here is a short video tutorial to help everyone walk through the process of paying national dues.

Lastly, please note that you are required to pay national dues & chapter dues to attend the KMEA workshop on February 23rd - February 25th. Failing to pay chapter dues by December 9th, 2022 will result in a price increase from $20 to $25. Failure to pay chapter dues by December 31st, 2022 will result in membership termination and ineligibility for the KMEA workshop.
