Gift Memberships

 

As a way to share the AAA community resources with your students, friends, and loved ones, we offer several types of gift memberships for K-12 students, undergraduate students, graduate students, and professionals.

Gift membership recipients receive all the benefits of a AAA member and a complimentary membership in either the National Association of Student Anthropologist (for k-12 and undergraduates) or the General Anthropology Division (for graduate students and professionals).
