Americans United is a tax-exempt educational organization. Basic membership is $25 a year and includes $18 toward your subscription to CHURCH & STATE magazine. So you see that larger gifts are necessary if the organization is to have adequate funding. If you are in Middle Tennessee, you can also be a member of the Nashville Chapter by sending your money through Nashville or advising Washington. If you send your donation to our Washington headquarters it may take some time for the Chapter to discover that you are a member, and we will not receive any portion.
Whatever amount you send to the Nashville Chapter is normally shared with headquarters in Washington. A $25 membership would be split 50-50. Your minimum donation of $25 will be split evenly. Amounts over $25 may be kept for chapter use. Please indicate whether renewal, new or chapter donation.
Our national headquarters sends mailings at various times. If you respond to their mailing to become a member, please indicate Nashville Chapter if you are in Middle Tennessee. New memberships obtained through the Nashville Chapter result in sharing of the basic membership amount with the Chapter. If you renew membership through the chapter, we will also be able to retain something for our treasury and you will ensure that we are in touch with you about local events.
The simplest way to join Nashville Chapter and Americans United is to send a check for $25 or more made out to Americans United to:
NASHVILLE CHAPTER AMERICANS UNITED
PO BOX 210005
NASHVILLE TN 37221
However, we would greatly appreciate designation to help our treasury, your telephone number, and especially your e-mail address. Also tell us what you think you might be able to do to help the cause of religious liberty.
