BECOME A SUPPORTIVE MEMBER
The EMAlumni Association is primarily funded by the Global Campus of Human Rights which is our parent organisation. Our secondary funding source is EMAlumni themselves – those who become supportive members by supporting the Association with a contribution of EUR 20 a year.
We believe in being free to set the direction of the Association following the needs and wishes of its members – the EMAlumni. We also wish to be accountable to our members. For these reasons, supportive members play a huge role in allowing us to be independent.

How is my contribution used?
EMAlumni Association receives most of its funding from the Global Campus, which allows us to pay the salary of our wonderful Secretary General (who officially works only 2 days per week), a small amount for our office in Brussels and for most of our projects (Career Day, EMalumni Award etc). All the Alumni, including the nine board members, that participate in our projects do it on a volunteer basis. Your contribution allows us to have more stability as an Association and a source of unrestricted funding which can not only be used for urgent matters but for organizing more network-strengthening activities.
So, the more contributions, the more projects!
By the way, if you would like to lead or help us run a project for our community, drop your idea in the idea box!
What happens if I do not pay my contribution for one or more years?
In order to be a supportive member, you need to pay the annual contribution of 20 euros. If you do not, you are not considered a supportive member.
But, no worries! You can always pay and go back to being one!
I keep forgetting to pay my annual contribution, is there an option to make it recurring?
We hear you! With Paypal and the Bank Transfer there is the option of making an annual recurring deposit to the EMAlumni Association so you keep being a supportive member.
I still have more questions. Where should I send an email?
Please send it to info@emalumni.org. Our Secretary General will respond to any questions you might have.
If money is tight, but you still want to support the Association, there are plenty things you can get involved in! Drop us an email at info@emalumni.org and we’ll have a chat!
