Dues and Donations
Dues
At this time the German
Jewish SIG does not have a dues structure. Members are
asked to make donations, both to JewishGen and to the German
Jewish SIG.
Donations
In order to carry
out the most basic functions of the SIG -- the acquisition,
translation, and entry of data into our internet database --
there are many technical, organizational, and administrative
expenses. Even in an internet world, it costs money to
communicate internationally, to photocopy, to scan, and store
records, and to translate documents. Until we identify
and agree on specific projects to work on in the coming year,
we will not be able to develop a specific budget for the German
Jewish SIG. However, for those who have the resources,
we would appreciate a contribution of $100. If that amount
is beyond your comfort level, we would be pleased with whatever
you can provide as an indication of your support for our activities.
Please contribute, either by:
-
check
payable to JewishGen/German Jewish SIG
and mailing it to JewishGen, Inc., 2951
Marina Bay Dr., Suite 130-472, League City, TX 77573; or
-
credit
card through JewishGen-erosity.
Because of a generous grant from
an anonymous donor, JewishGen is able to provide administrative
assistance, as well as a home for the German Jewish SIG listserver
(mailing list) and for our future Web page and searchable databases.
We all benefit from the efforts of the JewishGen organization
and the services it provides. Therefore, each and everyone one
of our SIG members is strongly encouraged to make undesignated
donations to JewishGen, in addition to the donations to the
German Jewish SIG.
JewishGen, Inc. is a tax-exempt,
501(c)(3) organization. Contributions to JewishGen are tax-deductible
in the US according to law for both designated (to German Jewish
SIG) and undesignated donations.
