Our alumni chapter is going to begin charging dues. Quite a bit higher than what many of y'all are talking about. We're wanting to be able to fund lots of things to make the active chapter a stronger organization. I figure that it's damned near impossible to repay my chapter for what it's given me.

Ditto to what my sister said. My alumnae chapter dues are modified based on where you live. Sisters who live on Oahu pay $30, whereas Delta Sigmas and other sisters who live off-island pay $15. Like our collegiate chapters, dues go toward functions and special events & the newsletter.

All Phi Mu alumnae chapters set their own dues. There is a portion of that which goes to National but the other portion is set by the individual chapter. My chapter's dues are $35 per year.
We also have Chapter Associations which support whichever collegiate chapter you are from and those dues vary from association to association. My association has voluntary dues of $25 per year to help cover the cost of reunions, newsletters etc.

TBS national alumni dues are $30 annual or a one-time Lifetime flat $250. The individual districts and local alumni chapters have their own set prices on top of that (it's $25 for mine, $20 if you're a life member).

Since I work predominantly with the undergrad active chapter, I pay the same dues as the undergraduates (for us it's $80 per semester) because I know I'll be participating in some of the social events, and it's only fair that I'm paying my part into the fund to sponsor them. It's a voluntary thing, but I felt it was the right thing to do based on my current activity level with the chapter.
