Pay As You Can Membership: A 2020 Initiative
We recognize that 2020 has been a time of particular hardship for many in the taiko community, and we want to ensure that everyone who wants to be a part of the Taiko Community Alliance can be. As such, in 2021 we are offering a “Pay As You Can” option for joining TCA.
If you are experiencing financial hardship that would prevent you from joining TCA at our Regular member rate, we invite you to join at an open sliding-scale rate starting at $10. Simply choose “Pay As You Can” when prompted to select your Membership Level below and enter a rate of your choice starting at $10.
