Membership is open to all widowed men and women.  Members pay annual dues of $25 each to cover the cost of postage for quarterly calendars, subsidies to support several events each year, and other expenses related to the operation of the club.  Prospective members are invited to attend up to three sponsored events of their choice before deciding on joining WMWA.

To join, you must submit a completed application, a pro-rated dues amount determined by the month you join, and a copy of your spouse's death certificate or obituary notice.  Please do not send original documents:  make a copy to send in with your application.  This information will be treated as strictly private and personal, and the documentation will be returned to you.
