We’re building an organization that belongs to us – Ordinary people in Western WI
Become a GROWW Member. Make a contribution to join your neighbors standing up for our homes and families and winning the change we need.
Connect with your neighbors and build power for ordinary people in western Wisconsin.
Our members are the backbone of our work together. No matter how much money we have or whether we’re white, black or brown, together we’re grounded in the needs and aspirations of our community. Membership connects you with a network of people ready to get to work for a better future.
Counter Corporate Power with People Power. For too long, our communities have suffered under policies that benefit the wealthy few while draining resources from our neighborhoods, towns, schools, and local governments. We know it doesn’t have to be this way.
Shape our work & drive change on the issues impacting our lives and families most. We work with everyone in our community to make change, but only GROWW Members are eligible to:
- Vote on and approve GROWW’s Values, Vision, and Platform proposed by the GROWW Leadership Team.
- Be eligible to serve on our Board of Directors, the GROWW Leadership Team (Launching later in 2025), and/or future Endorsement Committees.
Questions? – Read more about membership or contact a GROWW organizer.

- Members will also be eligible to serve on our Board of Directors, the GROWW Leadership Team (Launching in 2025), and/or future Endorsement Committees.
- Importantly, regardless of membership status we continue to invite all community members to build power with us by leading in our work through GROWW campaigns, trainings, and public actions.
What are annual dues to become a GROWW Member?
- GROWW Members contribute what is right for them! Our minimum annual dues are $5 for an individual or $10 for a household with 2 or more adults. Because we’re in this together and committed to GROWW being an organization that can belong to all of us in western Wisconsin, regardless of how much money we make, there are no different Membership titles or privileges for dues paid over the minimum annual.
When does my GROWW membership renew?
- Membership terms last 1 year from your join date at the end of a given month!
How do I renew my membership each year?
- If you set up a recurring contribution, you won’t have to worry about renewing; it will happen automatically! If you make a one-time membership contribution, renew your membership without it lapsing by making a qualifying membership contribution within a 4 month window around your expiration-date. Contributions received outside that window, wont will not impact your membership status or expiration date.
- Contact an organizer if you have questions, we’re working within the confines of our software system, but we’ll work to make sure you don’t fall through the cracks.
Our GROWW Leadership Team is the governing body responsible for ensuring and articulating our shared vision and values across our campaigns.
GROWW Leadership Team (GLT) members represent each of our official campaigns and their bases and are typically serving on campaign leadership teams. Explicit responsibilities include:
- Guiding and developing GROWW’s strategy to fulfill our mission;
- Drafting and proposing amendments to our Vision, Values, and Platform statements for approval by all GROWW Members;
- Consulting and Guiding GROWW Staff on questions and issues as they arise;
- And publicly representing GROWW and GROWW Membership as necessary.
GROWW and GROWW Education Boards of Directors serve to oversee in the organizational and financial mechanics of our organization in order to keep us strong, financially stable, and in compliance with federal and state requirements.
