However, as a general rule, the Federation as a volunteer organization. None of it's officers actually earn money for the duties they perform. As such, any dues that are paid to your chapter and your associations, if any exist, will help to promote the events of that specific organization or of the Federation as a whole, which, in my view, is considered enough of an advantage. On top of that however, paid members are allowed to vote as well as hold positions in the governing bodies of the organization chapters.

> In the NFB we try to keep the costs of joining a division or chapter or affiliate down so that anyone can join. Generally we like to keep dues around $5 which can be less expensive than a lot of organizational dues when you are thinking about other non-blindness related organizations.
> the money goes to help fund programs and activities that benefit blind people across the state and country. Think about the fact that most of us don?t get paid for our work but getting the things we need and seeing that people get to where they need to be isn?t free. that small bit does help.
