Open Membership

In line with our other values, beliefs, and principles, the EGD actively works to ensure the Collective is open to all, regardless of circumstance.

Our Basic Membership is, and will always be, 100% free and open to the public for anyone 13 years of age or older. In addition, we collect direct donations from the public and give members the option to cover a Student Voting Membership fee for a student that can’t afford it to ensure that all students that wish to have the ability to fully participate in our Collective.

Student leaders and faculty also have the option to donate two hours a week to EGD's fundraising committee in exchange for a free institutional membership; for groups or students that may not be supported financially by their administration to receive Student Voting Memberships for all currently enrolled students.
