Dues are voluntary, not mandatory. Everyone is welcome at general meetings and future mixers whether they pay dues or not.

Voluntary Support

What Dues Mean

Paying dues helps us fund events, supplies, food, activities, and the behind-the-scenes costs that keep KSA running.

Dues make you eligible to be picked up for KSA programs and member opportunities connected to the paid membership list.

Not paying dues does not remove you from general meetings, future mixers, or the chance to show up and be part of KSA.

If you just want to come learn Korean, meet people, and enjoy the community, that is completely fine.

Dues help make snacks, food, stickers, and other small member perks possible throughout the year.

The goal is support, not pressure. Dues help KSA grow, but participation in our broader community stays open.
