If you would like to make a donation only, without paying membership fees, we would be most grateful. A button for that purpose is provided below. Please note that donations are eligible for a receipt for Canadian income tax purposes; we normally issue these receipts near the end of February of the following year.

Membership is open to all who value the objects of the Association.

The Association's annual membership fee is $30.00 payable by the 31st of December for the ensuing calendar year. New members joining before the 15th of November are enrolled for the current year and sent its back issues unless otherwise requested. Membership benefits include receipt of The Nova Scotia Genealogist; reduced rates for publishing queries and for admission to Association workshops; and the satisfaction of materially helping to realize the Association's objectives. It also includes automatic subscription (if desired) to the GANS members-only mailing list. The list is intended primarily to provide members with notifications of upcoming GANS events and projects.
