Montana Shares is a partnership of Montana nonprofits that helps connect donors with causes they want to support in their communities and makes it easy for them to do so through workplace giving programs. The annual raffle is another way that they raise funds for nonprofits and traditionally,  AERO provides a local foods gift basket every year. This year you have a chance to win our gift basket featuring Montana lentils, honey, tea, coffee, and more! But that’s not all – many Montana nonprofits have contributed dozens of wonderful prizes.

AERO MEMBERSHIP

While any contribution qualifies for membership, we recommend $40 / year for an individual or family (household) membership; $20/year for students.

Member Benefits include:

• Discounted registration to our annual Expo
• Our monthly E-News, membership announcements, and the quarterly Sun Times delivered to your inbox
• One vote at member meetings, including AERO’s Annual Meeting

The win-win of Sustaining Members

We REALLY appreciate sustaining (recurring) contributions of $5/mo or more, with automatic withdrawal and renewal. Sustaining contributions provide a reliable income stream throughout the year, so we can focus more on implementing our programs, and less on fundraising.

The win-win-win of Sustaining Partners

When you participate with a sustaining (recurring) contribution, with automatic withdrawal and renewal, it becomes a line item on your budget, you eliminate a renewal call from us, and we get support in planning out our year, which is SO helpful for our annual budgeting and cash flow. Thank you!
