Donate

Vapers Finland ry funds its operations by collecting membership fees, from both regular and supporting members, and by selling merchandise designed around the association. In addition to these fundraising methods, we can accept donations. The fact of the matter is, that even though our member base is large and passionate, we could not operate without the continued support of the entire scene being behind and next to us. We’ve come a long way, but there are still a multitude of hurdles to overcome. This is why Your continued support is needed and appreciated.


IF you wish to make a donation, you may do so with the banking details listed below. You can also donate completely anonymously if you so wish. Please make sure to mention this in the message field of the payment

Honorary member(s) have voting rights.

No membership fee.

 

Resigning or dismissal of member or membership

The member may resign from the association at any time by submitting a written notice to the board or directly to the chairman. In practice a non-formal e-mail is sufficient. You may send an e-mail to the board hallitus@vapers.fi or to the chairman jarmo.heiskanen@vapers.fi. Optionally, you may also announce your resignation in a membership meeting. No explanation or reason is required, although preferred. Already paid membership fees will not be refunded although you must request to terminate your membership before the expiry of the current membership period.

 –
The board may also dismiss the member for any of following reasons:
  • The membership fee is not paid on the agreed date or in full.
  • The member has not fulfilled his/her responsibilities that he/she has adhered to by joining the association.
  • The member has caused harm to the association by his/her conduct within or outside the association.
  • The member no longer fulfils the membership requirements set by the law or association rules.
