Financial Commitment:  Members pay dues annually based on revenue. 

ODA members pay annual membership dues. Dues are calculated based on revenue, as follows: 

Nonprofits and businesses under $1,000,000  = $1,000 

$1,000,000-$5,000,000 = $2,500

$5,000,000 - $10,000,000 = $5,000

$10,000,000-$25,000,000 = $7,500

More than $25,000,000 = $10,000 

Catalyst Member = $25,000+
