GMA Membership — Free to Join
Belonging should never have a price. Join GMA in 60 seconds — no fee to join, no approval wait — with optional tiers to support GMA.
Belonging Should Never Have a Price
GMA membership is free because we believe that community belonging should never be gated by a fee. When you join GMA, you and your entire household gain immediate access to every program, every event, and every service GMA offers — with no approval wait — and voluntary Patron and Grand Patron giving levels that sustain GMA.
Membership Categories & Fees
Per the GMA Bylaws (Section 4.2.1), membership is offered in the following categories. Joining is always free — the Student and Community categories carry no fee. Patron and Grand Patron are voluntary giving levels that sustain GMA.
The spouse of a member is considered a member in the same category. Minor children up to age 18 are considered family members under the same category. Every Founding Member is a Patron Member.
