The SACOSS Board may from time to time award Honorary Life Membership to a member to recognise their exceptional contribution to SACOSS, and an outstanding contribution to addressing poverty, equity and justice.
A candidate for Life Membership must have been a financial Member of SACOSS for at least 5 years and have made a very significant contribution in terms of time, effort and commitment, leadership and extraordinary service in support of SACOSS.
A significant contribution is one which results in SACOSS making substantial and positive progress towards addressing poverty, injustice and inequity, and which demonstrates a strong commitment that is above and beyond their professional role.
Candidates must additionally meet one of the following criteria (or a combination of the above, at the discretion of the SACOSS Board):
- Minimum five years of service on the SACOSS Board, Policy Council or committee;
- Minimum five years of service as a SACOSS volunteer/supporter
