You can set your account to auto-renew each year. To do this, log into your account and go to the Manage Membership section. On that page, you can verify if your account is set up to auto-renew and if not, set up auto-renewal. Auto-renewal will have to be re-set up after any changes to your credit card number.

If you already have an Individual Print or Digital membership, you can add anyone living at the same address as a household member for $15.  Household membership benefits are equivalent to an Individual Digital membership.

How you add a member differs slightly if they are someone entirely new to CFO (without an existing account) or if they already have a CFO account (i.e., have previously been a CFO member or registered for a CFO event). Please select the correct option for a PDF to walk you through how to add or renew a household membership.

CFO is a 501(c)3 registered organization. Membership dues just barely cover the expenses of producing the journal and other direct support for membership, so those are not tax-deductible.  All donations to CFO, including specific fundraising activities like the Colorado Birding Challenge, are tax-deductible.

If you did not log into your account as part of creating your membership (e.g., joined as a household member), you will need to set up your online account to register for events and receive other member benefits, like reading issues of Colorado Birds.
