** Please Note: As of September 1, 2026, the Friends of the GPPL is using Zeffy to process online Membership purchases and renewals. The Zeffy platform does not charge a service fee, however, there is an opportunity to “tip” Zeffy in order to keep the platform free for non-profits.
If you wish to change the amount of the Zeffy “tip”, use the drop-down menu at checkout to change the optional % to Other and then type in the desired amount in the Contribution box (see screenshot below). Thank you for your support!
