The SEM Fund (Sojourners Endowment Memorial Fund) is an IRC 501(c)(10) qualifying, tax-exempt fund.  This IRC reference is for selected organizations.  National Sojourners is one of these organizations.  The SEM Fund serves the Order’s business operations and ensures its functionality.

THE 3-6-5 FUND

The 3-6-5 Fund (Club) is a sub-set of this SEM Fund that was developed as a further incentive for individuals and Chapters.  The yearly membership in the 3-6-5 Club is $3.65.  A Life Membership, which is encouraged for administrative reasons, is $36.50.  A Life Member gets a special membership card from the National Secretary.  A Chapter may earn a recognition streamer for their Chapter Flag, if they meet the overall membership’s minimum requirement, i.e., the equivalent of 100% participation by the Chapter’s membership.  The National Secretary performs the recordkeeping and awards the streamer on a yearly basis to those Chapters that earn it.  This recognition is also published in The Sojourner. Donations should be made out simply to:  SEM Fund. Where it is a 3-6-5 Club donation, the member should put a notation in the “memo” portion of the check, e.g., 3-6-5 Club, Phoenix Chap #306  OR  L3-6-5 Club, Phoenix Chap #306  This ensures the proper credit to the Chapter.
