+## Pilot Phase: Become an Organizational Founding Member
+
+On October 1, 2024, US-RSE will start the pilot phase of an organizational
+membership program, which will run through November 30, 2025.

+organizational founding member.
+The annual membership fees (see Table 3) will remain the same for founding
+members until December 31, 2028.

+organizational founding member.

+
+
+### Organizational Membership Duration
+
+Organizational membership is defined per calendar year from January 1 to
+December 31.
+Organizations can join throughout the year with membership fees being reduced
+between August 1 and November 30 to 50% for the remainder of the year and
+reduced benefits as described below.
+Members joining on or after December 1 will be members the following year from
+January 1 with all benefits.
+
+
+### Benefits for Organizational Founding Members
+
+Organizational Founding Members will be recognized with their logo on the US-RSE
+website, on conference material, and in annual reports.
+Organizational members benefit from opportunities to help shape US-RSE’s
+activities and strategic initiatives via quarterly meetings with the US-RSE
+Leadership including the Executive Director (ED), Community Manager (CM) and a
+subset of the elected Steering Committee (SC).
+
+US-RSE’s organizational membership model has three tiers with different
+membership fees (see Table 3).
+As the second most visited page (after the homepage) on the website, the job
+board is highly successful, and Standard and Premier membership include
+highlighted job postings.
+Our annual conference is the flagship event for RSEs and allies in the United
+States, and Standard and Premier membership includes free registrations at the
+event (see Table 1 for the summary of benefits).
+
+Organizations joining before August 1 in coming years receive all benefits for
+that year.
+For Standard and Premier members this includes benefits for the annual
+conference in the current calendar year.
+Organizations joining on or after August 1 but before December 1 pay half of the
+membership fee for the calendar year, but for Standard and Premier level will
+not receive conference-related benefits and will only receive half as many
+highlighted posts on the job board.
+They will have all other benefits including the remaining quarterly meetings
+with the US-RSE leadership group (see Table 2 for the summary of benefits).
+Organizations joining on or after December 1 receive the membership for the
+following year.
+
+
+### Annual General Meeting and Annual Report
+
+US-RSE holds a virtual Annual General Meeting open to all individual and
+organizational members in December of each year.
+Organizational members will be acknowledged in the meeting.
+Organizational members will additionally receive an annual end-of-the-year
+report, which includes a directory of all organizational members.
+
+
+### US-RSE Organizational Membership is inclusive
+
+US-RSE prioritizes diversity, equity, and inclusion through initiatives that
+cultivate a representative and inclusive RSE community.
+It aims at creating and maintaining a diverse workforce.
+The membership model is designed to give all interested organizations the
+possibility to become an organizational founding member if joining by
+December 1, 2025.
+Besides the benefits listed in Table 1 and Table 2, US-RSE provides the
+following opportunities:
+- Organizations can gift annual memberships to other organizations.[^2]
+- A 5-year membership can be purchased for the price of a 4-year membership.
