GET INVOLVED

JOIN OUR AUXILIARIES

The Tacoma Urban League Guild and the Tacoma Urban League Young Professionals — two ways to give your time, talent and voice to this work.

Join the GuildJoin TULYP

Find your people. Build what lasts.

Two member-led communities. One shared commitment to Tacoma.

A PLACE TO SHOW UP

Auxiliaries make the mission personal.

Our auxiliaries are member-led groups that extend the League's mission through volunteerism, fundraising, leadership development and community engagement. Joining starts with Tacoma Urban League membership.

HOW TO JOIN

BECOMING A MEMBER

The same four steps get you started with the Guild, TULYP, or both.

  1. 01

    Become a Tacoma Urban League member — individual, business and corporate memberships are available, with access to classes, events, discounts, specialized training, grants, resources and networking.

  2. 02

    Tell us which auxiliary you're interested in — the Guild or TULYP (or both).

  3. 03

    Get connected — we'll introduce you to the auxiliary's leadership and add you to the roster.

  4. 04

    Come to a meeting or event — the Guild meets the third Saturday of each month at 1:00 PM; TULYP gathers through its own member events and programming.

Membership dues and auxiliary-specific requirements can be confirmed with our team — reach out and we'll walk you through it.
