BECOME A MEMBER

If you’re familiar with crowdfunding through Patreon, I have our membership program set up in a similar way. By becoming a supporting member of Melungeon Roots, you’re helping us keep the Resource Center free and accessible to the public. If you’re able to commit to the Mountain Legend tier, you’re also showing us in a big way that you want this project to stick around – and we’ll be doing our very best to make that happen!

If you want to go beyond paid membership or would prefer to help in some other way, please consider a contribution to our pre-launch campaign. Members donating $333 or more will receive a lifetime Mountain Legend membership and sponsor 11 Hill Folk members for one year! * Click here to be added to the waitlist, if you’d like to join but can’t commit to the monthly fee. Gift memberships are also available for a limited time (Check box “Is this a gift?” at checkout). We welcome aligning organizations to apply for membership here.

Sign up before our anticipated launch date of 3.3.25, and you’ll earn this Early Explorer badge for your community profile, in addition to your tier badge.

Thanks so much for your support!

IMPORTANT: Paid members will get instant access to the online community and forums. However, some of the benefits listed below (profile badges, shared docs, etc.) are not yet fully functional. Please know that will change very soon and I’ll be keeping you in the loop through posts to the Welcome Home group you’ll be added to at sign up!

Membership fees collected prior to our official launch will be applied towards the costs of maintenance and continued creation of the site, in order to prevent the project from going offline. For that reason, all fees and donations are non-refundable at this time.

* Please submit a “lifetime membership request” using our Connect form after your donation of $333 or more and we’ll get you set up right away!
