Please scroll down to see the English version.

奥斯汀华盟在各位会员的参与和支持下，本着服务社区，传承文化的宗旨，在一年半时间里超计划完成了大量的社区服务工作，并成为奥斯汀有影响力的华人社团。华盟的成长有目共睹，而我们都是这个美好的成长故事中的一员。关于华盟成立一年多来的回顾，请看这个短片：https://youtu.be/75i71HDfK34

随着会员人数的增长，华盟目前的人工资料管理方式已经不能满足需求，大家从频繁的会员号的询问中就可见一斑。为此华盟理事会同意并推动建立了会员自助登录系统，现在我们请求每位会员都在新系统中建立自己的账号，以简化大家以后购票，续会及统计的操作。

建立会员账号用以下链接：https://www.austinchineseamericannetwork.org/membership-account/membership-levels/

请选择您目前已有的会员种类(家庭或个人)，然后按要求选择用户名，密码并提供其它少量信息。我们会根据记录在以后设定您的会员有效期。在2017年九月及以前参加的会员目前已经到了续会时间，请在建立账号时提供付款方式以缴纳会费。其他会员请输入优惠码(discount code) RegisterOnly，不需缴费(系统仍会提示信用卡信息，但不收费）。以后会员续会都由系统通过email提醒。以前在华盟网站上存在的少数未付费账号已无效。ACAN 希望在九月份全部会员都有自己的账号，已经在网站上付费的最新会员(会员号以C开始)不需要再建账号。

从即日起，华盟理事会提议将华盟会费降低到个人会员为$10和家庭会员为$15，会员有效期一年。新会员和续会会员执行同样会费。家庭会员适用于居住于同样地址的直系亲属，包括法律认定的所有婚姻关系和领养关系。家庭会员限定六人。

如果大家在续会费及建立账号过程中遇到问题，请联系email acan.members@gmail.com 或微信号talkbz。

* ACAN 不记录会员付款方式，所有会员付款由大型网络付款平台直接处理。会员会费目前按理事会提议执行，未来有可能因为其它批准程序调整。

Within a year and a half since its inception, Austin Chinese-American Network has become a prominent non-profit organization for the Austin Chinese-Americans. Serving our community and fostering our heritage, every footprint of the ACAN journey has your names engraved on (https://youtu.be/T2LsOZPfhZQ).

To better serve the growing member community, ACAN has built a new self-register membership management system. Many future members-only activities and benefits will rely on this system.

ACAN therefore requests all members to establish an account via following link:

For all members who joined ACAN on or before 9/30/2017, your membership is due for renewal. Please kindly provide payment information and you will be charged for the new lower annual membership fee depend on your membership type. All other members may use discount code “RegisterOnly” during registration, and you will not be charged at this time (please still provide the credit card information for verification or auto renewal in future).

Effective immediately, ACAN’s new annual membership fee is lowered to $10 per year for individual members and $15 for family members. Family membership includes up to 6 members living in the same household.
