Good Work Austin Membership
Are you ready to join a movement that's reshaping the local food and beverage industry? Good Work Austin offers an innovative and affordable membership model designed to support workers and businesses through professional development, resource sharing, and community engagement.
Together, we can create a thriving industry where workers are valued, and locally-owned businesses succeed.
Annual Membership Fees
Good Work Austin has a membership model that ensures individuals and all businesses, regardless of size, looking to join can participate and benefit. By making membership affordable and accessible, we foster greater involvement and adherence to social responsibility. Our model is focused on increasing inclusivity and accessibility while maintaining a strong values-based approach to our membership network.
Membership fees are based on an annual renewal cycle, starting from the date of joining, rather than aligning with the calendar year.
A business membership includes membership for all employees of the business. This means that employees can access benefits, resources, and programs offered by Good Work Austin. Individual memberships are available for those who are not employed by a member business but still want to be involved.
