Equity Pricing

Rocket City Modern Quilt Guild is happy to offer all of our programming and membership on an equity pricing model. This supports our mission to develop and encourage the art of modern quilting by making our guild accessible to as many people as possible, while ensuring fair compensation for speakers and teachers. When you are looking to sign up for membership or an activity, you will see 3-4 payment options.

Pay it Forward Price: Consider paying this amount if you are able to contribute to others’ ability to participate in guild activities.
Guild Cost Price: This is the guild cost for the event.
Equity Level 1 Price: If paying the Guild Cost Price presents a financial burden, please choose this price.
Equity Level 2 Price: If paying the Guild Cost Price or Equity Level 1 Price (if available) presents a financial burden, please choose this price.
​

For example, a workshop might be priced as follows:
Pay it Forward Price:   $66
Guild Cost Price:     $60
Equity Level 1 Price:          $42
Equity Level 2 Price:                $24
When determining which option you might choose, please consider the more in depth explanation offered here:
