Club Member
As Members of Optimist Clubs, individuals have the opportunity to "Bring
Out the Best in Kids" along with other like-minded citizens. Through
an Optimist Club, volunteers can answer the needs of local youth by organizing
meaningful service projects. To pass the idea of becoming an Optimist along
to someone you know, see the Membership
Brochure. For a list of Clubs by District, please

Spousal Member
Through September 2010, those who join their spouses in Optimism can enjoy
certain discounts on international-level dues. See the Spousal
Membership Application for details.
Life Member
Life Membership is an honor often bestowed by a Club on an Optimist who
has shown years of dedication to the Club and the organization. Optimists
can also enroll themselves in Life Membership. Through Life Membership,
a one-time fee is paid and the Optimist pays lower dues for life. See the
Life
Member Application for additional information.
Friend
of Optimists
Individuals can show their support of Optimist International by becoming
Friends of Optimists. A Friend of Optimists may be someone who does not
have an Optimist Club in their area, or they may not have time to dedicate
to a local Optimist Club. Optimist Clubs can also bestow a Friend of Optimists
membership on a community member who has shown great support for the Club.

of Optimists Brochure and read the Frequently
Asked Questions. To apply for membership online, click
