| The Sierra Club has been devoted to preserving
nature's miracles for over 100 years. We'd like to invite you to join us,
and the more than 550,000 members across the country who want to make the
world safe for all creatures great and small.
When you join the Sierra Club, you give something to the environment,
but you also get something in return.
You get voting privileges. The Sierra Club is the most internally
democratic national environmental organization in the world. Each member
receives an annual ballot to elect members of the Board of Directors, and
to have a voice in deciding priority issues. In a separate election, members
also vote on the make-up of the Chapter and Group executive committees.
You may even run for office yourself!
You'll be helping the planet. You'll have the satisfaction of
helping preserve irreplaceable wild lands and wildlife. Your voice will
be heard through congressional lobbying and grassroots action. Your membership
counts!
Sierra Magazine. You'll stay well informed with a one-year subscription
to award-winning Sierra magazine. Featuring spectacular nature photography
and in-depth reporting on the hottest environmental issues.
Discounts. Your membership entitles you to discounts on all Sierra
Club logo items, from tee-shirts to teacups. You'll also receive discounts
on our distinguished books and celebrated nature calendars.
Worldwide Outings Program. Let us guide you, teach you, astound
you. Sierra Club can take you to the far corners of the earth - paddling
or pedaling, ski touring or trekking. We offer hundreds of exciting outings
from the tundra to the tropics. You can even build trails, preserve archaeological
sites and help clean up the environment on our exhilarating Service Trips!
Local Chapter Membership. As a member of your local chapter,
you'll receive up-to-date news on conservation issues plus invitations
to chapter events. You can also volunteer for local or national conservation
campaigns.
You get a chance to become involved. If you wish to be more closely
involved in one or more conservation issues, you may join the Sierra Club
Environmental Rights Network by writing to the Office of Volunteer and
Activist Services at our national headquarters, or by e-mailing us at activist.desk@sierraclub.org. |
