Tradition 7

The 7th Tradition says that "every AA Group ought to be fully self supporting, declining outside contributions."  We have no dues or fees for AA membership, but we do have expenses.Contributions from Groups and individual members can be sent to Intergroup. Funds not needed by Intergroup to cover local telephone helpline etc. are then sent to Region who pay for insurance, public information etc. and any funds not needed to meet these costs are sent to GSO to meet the costs of financing the Fellowship overall (National Helpline, Website, Admin, Literature and lots more).
