Membership Fees
All retirees from Memorial University, and their surviving principal beneficiaries, are automatically members of the MUN Pensioners Association. MUNPA’s role is to advocate on behalf of our members, provide social networking opportunities, social events, and keep our membership informed through email, our newsletter, Your Voice, our website, www.mun.ca/munpa and our Facebook MUNPA Group
Funding for these services comes from membership fees of our supporting members. MUNPA's bylaws (Article 8.1) provide for a voluntary, modest, annual membership fee to be set by members at a general meeting (as of June 2012, $2.00 per month or $24.00 annually).
This fee enables us to cover the costs of our talks, group activities, socials, and Annual General Meeting. It also covers the staffing costs in our administrative office and allows us to produce, Your Voice, on a regular basis.
Please consider becoming an active MUNPA supporter so that we can maintain the full slate of MUNPA services currently available.
PAYING MUNPA MEMBERSHIP FEES
Membership fees may be paid monthly or annually.
