Self-Support

But we do have expenses...

When we participate in AA's 7th Tradition, we help support our group and A.A. worldwide. We help make sure that:

• Our group gets a meeting space
• Phones get answered

• Alcoholic persons in custody get Big Books
• Professionals get correct information about A.A.

• Loner A.A.s get letters

• Newcomers get literature and meeting lists
• A.A.s around the globe share experience, strength and hope

We achieve this ideal by being self-supporting through the voluntary contributions of our own members and declining outside contributions.
