Here's how to support all of CEA's important work, through either memberships or donations.

Memberships and donations charged through this Web site are processed by CEA's U.S. fiscal sponsor, the Yucatan Environmental Foundation (YEF), so are tax deductible in the U.S. You will first receive an order confirmation and then, when your order is processed, a YEF receipt, which you should print out for your tax records.

If you would prefer to pay by check, rather than by credit card, please make your payment to YEF, mail to YEF c/o Alex Bradley, PO Box 1813, Port Townsend, WA 98368-0219, and please note what category of CEA donation you are making. Please include your e-mail address, so we can save paper and send your tax receipt electronically. Thank you!
