Do members pay dues to ChicagoFIRST?
Shortly after forming ChicagoFIRST in 2003, the members determined that the organization would reach the desired level of success only if it combined member volunteerism with a full-time executive director. To fund the position and other organizational expenses, the members pay dues at a level that has not changed since 2003. Moreover, to foster equality among the members, which vary in size, each member pays the same amount of dues.
