Help Keep PERI Strong
PERI is launching a fundraising campaign to cover rising operational costs. While our $2 million legal reserve remains protected for pension defense, day-to-day costs have created a shortfall of approximately $90,000.
Your contribution helps fund:
- Newsletter printing & postage — $68,000/year
- Legislative representation — $30,000/year
- Office operations & member outreach
Over 80% of Life Members paid $100 at a time when that covered costs. Today, PERI needs your support more than ever.
