DUES

DC Minyan relies on its members in order to provide the services, events, and learning programs that sustain our strong and vibrant community. Because DC Minyan employs no professional staff, the membership funds we raise go directly toward DC Minyan’s significant ongoing expenses.

The dues listed below are anchor points for each category of membership. All DC Minyan dues are tax deductible. We welcome greater contributions from those who are able to help support DC Minyan. Additionally, we are an inclusive community and no one will be turned away because of difficulty in paying. If you are unable to pay the listed membership dues, we ask you to contribute whatever monetary amount you can. The Steering Committee maintains strict confidentiality regarding discounted membership dues, so please know that we respect your privacy and hope you will sign up for membership. Do not hesitate to contact the Steering Committee at sc@dcminyan.org if you would like to discuss paying in installments, reduced dues, or additional concerns.

Our dues year begins in July and High Holidays tickets are included in the cost of membership. Members are billed for their dues prior to the High Holidays and those who join after Purim will have their dues prorated by half. 

Full-price membership dues to DC Minyan are:

• $360 per adult, or $720 per couple
• $180 flat-rate children dues per household (for individuals or couples with one or more children, regardless of the child(ren)'s age)

Associate membership is intended for those who primarily belong to another religious community (e.g., out-of-town family and friends of DC Minyan members). Associate members are eligible for member pricing for certain DC Minyan programs and meals. Associate membership does not include High Holiday tickets or priority registration and member pricing for the Shavuot retreat, or other privileges, such as eligibility for various leadership roles or nominating privileges to the Steering Committee.

Associate membership dues to DC Minyan are $100 per adult; children's dues are waived for associate members.
