Contributions to Area 91
The A.A. groups themselves ought to be fully supported by the voluntary contributions of their own members. We think that each group should soon achieve this ideal; that any public solicitation of funds using the name of Alcoholics Anonymous is highly dangerous, whether by groups, clubs, hospitals, or other outside agencies; that acceptance of large gifts from any source, or of contributions carrying any obligation whatever is unwise. Then too, we view with much concern those A.A. treasuries which continue, beyond prudent reserves, to accumulate funds for no stated A.A. purpose. Experience has often warned us that nothing can so surely destroy our spiritual heritage as futile disputes over property, money, and authority. – TRADITION 7 – Long Form
Groups and districts with excess funds are urged to distribute those funds within A.A. to ensure that the A.A. message is carried to the still-suffering alcoholic, no matter where he or she may be.
Individual members often make their contributions on the spiritual basis of belonging to A.A. worldwide. Some choose, in addition to supporting their home group, to make an annual contribution that is divided between their District, Area 91, and the General Service Office in New York.
