A commitment to monthly support of Sisters Of The Road through our Sustaining Membership Program makes a big difference!  Sustaining Members provide a stable source of monthly income that helps cover regular operating expenses for the Café, and our other programs.  With a Sustaining Membership your financial institution automatically withdraws the amount you designate from your account and transfers the funds to Sisters through EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) on a monthly basis.


Here’s how it works:


Click here to fill out an authorization form and send it to us along with a voided check to begin your Sustaining Membership.  Or, click here to sign-up online.

Funds are transferred on the 5th of each month.  Deductions will appear on your account statement each month.
Monthly transfers will continue until you notify us in writing to change the transfer amount or to cancel your participation. We ask that you provide Sisters with 10 days written notice of intention to cancel before the 5th of the month.

Frequently asked Questions:

How will I know when money is deducted from my account each month?

Your monthly contribution will appear on your bank statement, like any transaction, with the notation SORC next to it.

Is my account information confidential and secure?

Yes! Only designated staff at the Café and authorized bank or credit union personnel will have access to this very confidential information.  It is as safe as any other bank transaction.

Can my monthly contribution be cancelled?

You can cancel this donation at any time.  We ask only that you provide us with 10 days written notice of your intent to cancel.
