Donations are used to help to offset costs associated with running the organization, participating in home learning conferences, communicating with members via the BCHEA E-News, zoom licenses, maintaining the website, printing brochures and other helpful materials, and other day to day costs of operating a society. https://bchea.ca/about/membership/
