Cooperate WNC Individual Membership
Cooperate WNC is here to grow relationships. We link together communities, organizations, households, and businesses to share knowledge and resources while developing long-term trust so we can achieve cooperation on a regional level. We provide mutual aid and sustainability education, regenerative agriculture support and promotion, and the connection of multi-functional, grassroots-led community hubs across WNC into a cohesive, supportive network of resource sharing and relationship building.
Cooperate WNC is funded by donations from members and supporters, along with grants from foundations and businesses aligned with our mission and values. Additionally, 10% of membership donations seed a Mutual Aid Relief Fund, which will be allocated to community members in times of acute financial distress.
Memberships are important for mutual aid in WNC. In addition to the financial value of membership donations, members are the links in the regional network and also show the level of grassroots support to foundations and donors who can provide greater financial support.
