The Center for Inquiry is a non-profit organization that receives no government or corporate funding. Its programs, including the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI), rely on contributions from people like you.
When you make a donation, you become a part of a worldwide movement of humanists, skeptics, atheists, and freethinkers, all working together to give voice to our values. Thank you!
Your CFI membership gift of $60 or more, or $5 or more monthly, will help fuel this fight for one full year. When you join this exclusive group of insiders, you’ll gain access to members-only communication, private event invitations, special donor recognition, and other great benefits.
Already a CFI member? Thank you! We’ll extend your membership for a year with your gift today.

What should I do if I’m a current subscriber?
Extending our magazines to our donors is intended to be a bonus and thank you for those who support us most. Current subscribers who are also members will continue to receive only one magazine each issue. If you are already subscribed to one of our magazines we encourage you to choose the other to receive thought-provoking material from us each month.
My magazine subscription is going to expire soon, should I renew?
If you would like to make a donation of $120 or $10/month or more you can let your magazine subscription expire and you’ll continue to receive the magazine for one year from the date of your donation or for the duration of your monthly donations.
You can also choose to continue subscribing to the magazine separately and enjoy the other membership benefits.
I would rather not receive a magazine, is that okay?
Of course! We appreciate being able to apply the full value of your donation to the work that we do. Choose the amount you’d like to donate on this page and you have the option to decline a magazine subscription on the next.
I just want to donate, not become a member formally
We never publish the list of our members and all membership benefits (aside from the Freethought in Action newsletter and magazine) are delivered via email and your secure CFI online account. Taking advantage of your membership is completely optional.
