Non-Profit and Education Institution Membership
The Non-Profit & Education Institution Membership is available to organizations that operate on a nonprofit, mission-driven, or public-benefit basis, including but not limited to:
- IRS-recognized nonprofit organizations (e.g., 501(c)(3), 501(c)(4), 501(c)(6), and similar)
- Nonprofit educational institutions, including schools, colleges, universities, and training programs
This membership is designed to support non-profit and education professionals and learners across a variety of roles, fostering collaboration and growth within the non-profit sector. As a member, the organization may make individual membership available to:
- Education institutions: Staff, faculty, and current students.
- Charitable Non-Profits and Associations: Staff members only.
- Manufacturing Extension Partnerships: Staff, students, or program participants.
This rate is not intended for for-profit businesses, consulting firms, or commercial training providers even if they serve communities or nonprofits. By selecting this membership category, the organization attests that it operates primarily for a nonprofit or public-benefit purpose and is not organized primarily for commercial profit. Women in Manufacturing reserves the right to request additional information or reclassify membership if an organization is found not to meet the intent of this category.
