Being a member of the OTW means that you have the right to vote in our annual election to elect new members to the OTW Board of Directors. For more information about our elections process, refer to How are Board Directors chosen? and our elections website.

To become a member, you need to donate US$10 to the OTW before June 30 and select “Yes” in response to the question: “Do you want to be an OTW member?” This is a membership donation.

A non-membership donation, while greatly appreciated, does not make you an OTW member and confers no voting benefits. A donation of less than US$10 or one that does not select “Yes” to the question about members is a non-membership donation.
