The Value of Your Membership

 

In 2022, the character of Red Bank’s elections began to change. We saw an influx of outside financing for the first time, marking a departure from our tradition of nonpartisan local governance. This shift led to the creation of Red Bank Forward—a community-led initiative dedicated to ensuring our local government echoes the voices of its residents, not external parties.

Starting at just $5 a month, you can join us in this crucial mission. This minimum contribution makes becoming a part of our cause accessible to everyone, reinforcing our belief in the power of collective action. However, the spirit of generosity within our community shines brightly, with many members choosing to contribute more—$20, $50, or even more each month—to support our vision.

​

Every Contribution Counts

​

• Flexible Support: While $5 a month opens the door to membership, the extent of your support is entirely up to you. Many of our members contribute $20 to $50 monthly, amplifying our ability to fund campaigns, counter misinformation, and engage voters. Your contribution, big or small, fuels our shared mission.

• Inclusive Participation: Membership comes with the privilege of voting on key decisions, including campaign support and spending. However, we also welcome one-time donations from those who might not be ready for a recurring commitment but still wish to make an impact. Every dollar contributes to our collective efforts to shape a more equitable, educated, and sustainable Red Bank.

​

Beyond Membership

 

Becoming a member of Red Bank Forward—or supporting us through a one-time donation—means more than just financial contribution. It’s about joining a movement that values equity, education, environmental stewardship, democracy, and grassroots engagement. Here’s what your support enables:

• Direct Campaign Support: Your contributions help us provide local candidates with the resources they need to run successful campaigns centered on our community’s values.

• Engagement and Education: Access to exclusive events and updates keeps you informed and engaged with our efforts and successes.

• Community Action: Opportunities to participate in volunteer activities and initiatives that directly impact our neighborhood.
