From professional growth to shared public-health progress

GPHCB membership is designed to help professionals learn, lead and contribute. The proposed Member Impact Program extends that purpose by connecting eligible membership revenue to carefully governed community priorities.

Member impact

Your membership can strengthen more than your career.

GPHCB is developing a proposed Member Impact Program designed to direct a Board-approved portion of eligible membership revenue toward verified community priorities—beginning with safer water and sustainable fruit-tree initiatives.

Proposed allocation model Subject to approval

Fruit-tree initiatives20% of allocation $5

The proposed $25 would be an organizational allocation from eligible membership revenue—not a separate charitable contribution made by the member.

Program details remain subject to Board approval, financial review, partner due diligence and final operating policies.
