Membership
We invite you to become a member of Interfaith Environmental Network!
Imagine for a moment, the impact on the world if all people of faith embraced its stewardship. Through membership in IEN, you don’t need to imagine. You can be a part of it!
IEN provides a forum for you to act out your faith while reaching across the barriers which sometimes divide us. While there are many secular organizations actively working to care for the environment, IEN brings a moral voice long missing from the dialog.
You are welcome to participate in many of our activities without membership, but by joining, you help support IEN’s programming and can also help shape and guide its direction.
Join IEN today to demonstrate your faithful commitment to caring for this great earth.
To join, send your check to the contact below. Checks should be made out to The Austin Community Foundation, with “Interfaith Environmental Network” in the Memo line. IEN is a non-profit organization sponsored by the Austin Community Foundation, funded entirely by membership dues and gifts from individuals and congregations. If you have questions before joining, please contact us using the link to the left.
