NYBTA is going green

NYBTA IS GOING GREEN

NYBTA - P.O. Box 192 - Brooklyn, NY 11236


As of January 1, 2009, NYBTA will cease sending meeting notices via USPS and will ONLY send notices via e-mail and also post them on our web site. This will save paper and money.

We are passing the savings on to you. NYBTA will suspend membership dues and will open our mailing list to ALL biology teachers without charge.

Please tell your colleagues about this change and ask them to join our e-mail list. If you or your colleagues are not currently on our e-mail list, please e-mail us at president@nybta.org with your address. As has been our policy, we will NOT share your information with other organizations.

To prevent our notices from ending up in your spam filter, add nybtaprograms@hotmail.com and nybtaprograms@gmail.com to your contact list.

We will continue to have meetings and events and continue to be a clearinghouse for information of use to biology teachers. Information of events sponsored by other organizations will be posted on our web site and e-mailed to you as a single URL which will not fill or clutter your in-box.

In order for our ALL VOLUNTEER staff to continue our mission of providing quality events for biology teachers in New York, we will need some assistance.

First: The first thing is the easiest: Donate money so that we can continue to provide the high level of programs that you have come to expect from NYBTA. We are a 501(c)3 corporation and contributions to NYBTA are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law. Put NYBTA on the list of charities which you support.

Contributors of $10 or more will receive a one year NYBTA membership card. It shows your support and gives you a discount at the SCONYC Conference.
Contributors of $50 or more will receive a three year membership card and an NYBTA t-shirt by mail.

NYBTA t-shirts are currently available at events for $10 or via USPS for $15 for the first shirt and $10 for each additional shirt. Send your size and a check made out to 'NYBTA' to NYBTA T-shirts, P.O. Box 192, Brooklyn, NY 11236

Second: Donate some of your time by joining the NYBTA staff. E-mail president@nybta.org for details on how you can help us help the teachers and students of New York.
