Anonymous Donor 2023 Dues Payment

An anonymous donor will match any new dues payments of $75 to $150 made from February 22nd - March 31st.

Example of donor assistance are below.
1. If a resident pays $150 for their dues the donor will match that payment 100% or $150.

2. If a resident chooses to pay only $90 toward their dues, the donor will donate the balance of the dues fee ($60) plus $30 matching the $90 paid by the resident.

The donor has heard many different reasons for residents not paying their dues. The donor is doing this so residents become more active in the community, take part in our monthly board meetings and become an active voting member in 2023.
