A. Music purchase and performance rights, defraying the costs associated with performances, i.e. hall rental, and, in the future, paying staff for their professional time.

Mostly for the maintenance of the chapter. Usually chapters will have various functions to help get more public exposure and greater attention. This develops the members as business leaders, and increases the number of people who want to join. Also, the chapters will usually operate under a non-profit status, and part of the dues will go to maintenance of the umbrella organisation, which will co-ordinate functions between chapters, and arrange for transfers when they are needed. The main branch will also provide legal counsel for keeping the organisation within proper guidelines and free of liability. ProfNet is a professional networking group with over 30 chapters throughout the US and expanding to international markets. For information on a ProfNet chapter near you, or starting one of your own, contact Nancy Roebke here for more details.
