Benefactor Associate
Recognizes those who offer a contribution beyond the entry level, supporting the maintenance and growth of the Society's initiatives in a more significant way. The Benefactor is one whose contribution becomes concrete possibilities: it broadens projects, improves publications, preserves records, and develops cultural and educational activities of wider reach.
Associate categories provide cultural participation and institutional support through a distinct relationship without admission to the Academic Body.
