Dues
Suggested yearly dues are $75 per member. Second and third members per household require their own membership and email address (i.e. or 2 people at the same address would pay $150 in yearly dues).
If $75 is more than you can afford at this time, LWV of the Greater Grand Rapids Area may be able to help. Contact LWVGGRA by completing and submitting the Contact Us form on the website: League of Women Voters Grand Rapids.
Dues are not tax deductible; we are a 501(c)(4) organization.

This pennant is from the Grand Rapids Equal Franchise Club, which was formed in April 1910. The club spread literature and information about suffrage, which helped build local support for the movement. In 1914, the club sponsored a song and essay contest to further promote their efforts. Michigan was an early supporter of women’s right to vote. Learn More.

The League is involved in advocating for a broad spectrum of issues and concerns. Your involvement may be in one or more of these issues in the following ways: by actively participating in a group study, listening to a panel of experts or advocating for the desired changes at all levels of our government. You are also welcome, and encouraged, to participate in our many voter registration/education events as your time permits.
