Membership is open to individuals supporting our mandate and values, and who want to contribute to this imitative. Membership is by shares, and we have three types of membership:
Full Member
A full member is a qualified individual who, through his or her training, can either provide services in the field of sustainability and environment, or can provide services that complement the work of Aster Group. A worker member will have completed his or her probationary period, paid his or her required shares, and supports the mandate and values of Aster Group. The minimum number of shares of a worker member is 5 (1 share = $ 100).
Non-profit Member
A “non-profit member” can be any non-profit organization that supports the mandate and values of Aster Group. The minimum number of shares of a non-profit member is 1 (1 share = $ 100, # of shares required is adjusted according to the budget of the organization).
Associate Member
An “associate member” is a supporting level of membership and is open to anyone wishing to support the policies, values and mandate of Aster Group. Associate members have access to contracts through Aster Group, can simply support the co-operative through the purchase of shares, or are individuals interested in becoming worker members. The minimum number of shares for an associate member is 1 (1 share = $ 100), the maximum 1000.
