The Supporting Member Program

Did you know that the Central Office ...

  • Provides 24-hour phone coverage, giving every caller in need the opportunity to talk to a live recovering alcoholic any time, day or night?
  • Handles and coordinates inquiries from treatment centers, prisons, professionals, and the general public, and makes sure that the appropriate service committee gets the call?
  • Fields 12th Step calls?
  • Provides temporary sponsors?
  • Stocks and sells only A.A. General Service Conference-approved and Grapevine literature?
  • Maintains this website?
  • Relies on 100% local support for contributions?

    • The Central Office depends on groups and members for a significant portion of its budget, and your regular contribution can make a significant difference in the financial health of your Central Office!


    What does it cost?

    The suggested contribution for Supporting Members is only one dollar a day. For less than a soda at a fast-food restaurant, you can make a significant contribution to the Central Office's ability to carry out its primary purpose of serving A.A. members, groups, and most importantly, alcoholics in need.


    What do I get?

    As a special "thank you" to our Supporting Members, we offer several special things not available to regular A.A. members. Such items include:
  • Discounted literature purchases
  • A free subscription to the Coffee Break, mailed to your home
  • Automatic membership in the birthday club
  • Invitation to an annual appreciation dinner
  • Other occasional special offers


    • How do I join?

    If you have a PayPal account, or want to pay by credit card or electronic bank draft of your checking or savings account, click the yellow "Join Now!" button and you will be offered a series of choices about how you'd like to pay, and how often. If you choose to use our web-based donation option, you will be billed $30.00 per month.

    If you want to pay by paper check or you want to donate an amount other than $30.00 per month, please call the office during office hours (817-332-3533, 8:45 a.m to 4:45 p.m.) to make arrangements.


    What if I want to cancel?

    We hope it's not necessary that you'll cancel your membership. We have set up a number of billing options that stop after a certain amount of time (three months, six months, nine months, one year), but if you do need to cancel , just click on "Cancel My Membership" and you'll be taken to PayPal so that you can cancel your billing.
