7th Tradition
Every AA group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.
The 7th Tradition keeps this meeting independent. We don't accept outside funding — no grants, no sponsors, no fees. Everything it costs to keep the doors open comes from the men in the room.
When the basket comes around on Sunday, that's the 7th Tradition in action. If you're joining on Zoom or want to contribute between meetings, you can do that here.
How to Contribute
In Person
Cash in the basket at Sunday meetings. Portland Recovery Community Center, 9:00 AM.
Where It Goes
Your contributions keep this meeting running. Here's what the 7th Tradition covers:
- Room rental at Portland Recovery Community Center
- Big Books and meeting literature
- Zoom account for hybrid access
- Contributions to CSOAA Maine (our central service office)
