Become a Member
Join with us at Blue Avocado in supporting the people of community nonprofits and the movements for social change that they both lead and build. We are experimenting with a public television model. You know how it works: public TV is free to watch, but thousands of people support it with modest and large donations. By joining, these members support independent programming, and at higher levels you get a tote bag (or something).
In the same way, it's free to subscribe and register (to comment) at Blue Avocado, and we're also asking you to support Blue Avocado by becoming a member. We need a little help from a lot of you as we go forward. You can become a member by clicking here, with memberships starting at $20. We're dreaming up our versions of the public TV tote bag . . . maybe mugs, maybe leisure wear, maybe beach towels. Send in your suggestions along with your membership!
Become a Blue Avocado Stringer

Blue Avocado Stringers are volunteer writers and listening posts who participate in the Blue Avocado community in several ways, including:
- Seeking out and submitting pieces to recurring features such as Word On The Street, Seen & Heard, and Take a 3 Minute Vacation Right Now
- Responding to RFSs (Requests For Stories) when we're working on a story but need the right angle or the right people to interview
- Serving as weather stations in the nonprofit sector and in community movements, spotting phenomena and trends that Blue Avocado should be reporting on
If you're interested in becoming a Blue Avocado Stringer, send an email to our editor. Tell us a little about yourself, and any ideas you already have for what Blue Avocado should be covering. Unleash your inner journalist. Get published. We look forward to hearing from you!
