Apply for Membership

How to Apply

We enjoy a diverse membership of professional women in the greater Delaware and Tri-State area. We’d love to discuss the membership process with you personally. Please email our Administrator at coordinator.fewde@gmail.com to receive a membership application and information to help answer any of your questions.

 You are invited to attend any Forum programs and events as a GUEST (up to three per year).

 

How to Sponsor

Sponsors are key to maintaining the profile of the Forum membership.  Before agreeing to be a sponsor or approaching a new prospect you wish to sponsor, take some time to review our membership information and to interview or review the resume of the applicant.  If you have any questions about the eligibility of a potential applicant, please contact the administrator or the Membership Committee Chair.  Sponsorship is a choice, not an obligation, of Forum members.

 Review our membership profile and pre-requesites before considering sponsorship of an applicant.

 Invite and encourage the prospective member/applicant to Forum programs as a GUEST (up to three per year).

 Discuss and review the member application with the applicant before submitting.

 Complete the sponsorship form and submit the application package to the Forum Administrator.

 Await the outcome of the review process.

Upon Board approval, the applicant is notified by mail/phone and/or email.  The review and approval process typically takes two weeks or less.

If accepted, new members will pay the standard membership fee for their status (regular, emeritus or out-of-town), plus a one-time, new member fee of $50.
