7th Tradition

AA’s Preamble and 7th Tradition tell us: There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. The Seventh Tradition: Every A.A. group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.   The AA brochure The Twelve Traditions Illustrated reminds us, “As active alcoholics we were always looking for a handout—in one way or another.”   “Experience has taught us also, that AA as a whole needs to be self-supporting and independent.”  AA at Fairview Riverside serves suffering alcoholics with time, fellowship, meetings, and sponsors. In addition, your donations help us bring support such as:   

• Meeting rooms   
• Straight Talk,   
• Literature, & Medallions    
• Support for: AA World Services; Local Intergroups; Area 36 Southern MN, District 18,   
• Gopher State Roundup hospitality  

Why not talk about the 7th Tradition in your group to see if action is needed? Suggested voluntary contribution: $2 per week
