  • Individual members: Recommended amount is $75 per year, or pay what you can  with a minimum of $20 per year.
  • Add a second member (Recommended amount is $150 total for both or  a minimum of $40 for both). Each member will need to provide a unique email address.
  • Life members (members for more than 50 years) are exempt from membership dues in appreciation of their dedication to democracy.

Making Payments

  • The preferred payment option is a direct bank transfer (ACH transfer), which minimizes fees. You’ll need your financial institution's routing number and your account number.
  • You also have the option to pay by credit or debit card.
  • If you are not comfortable making payments online, see Pay Dues by Check for instructions.
  • You will receive an online confirmation and an email receipt for your payment.
    • Note: ONLY the state and local League portion of the membership dues will be tax-deductible. The email receipt will show the 67% of your dues going to LWVDE and LWVSCDE and can serve as your tax-receipt.
    • Your membership dues payment will show up as three transactions on your account — one each to LWVSCDE, LWVDE, and LWVUS. You’ll be a member of all three!
    • Keep things simple by automatically renewing each year! Just select auto-renewal when you are paying your dues.
