Annual Dues & Donations
NEW! 3 Dues Options
Premier Patron: $150
Standard Household: $50
Senior Rate: $25
As of February 1, 2026, the MPUM Neighborhood Association annual dues are now $50 per household. This is the first dues increase since 2014 and reflects rising operating costs and additional neighborhood programming. There is also a new Premier Patron dues option of $150, which gets you special recognition in MPUM communications, a freebie at the next block party, and additional entries in the 2026 raffle (details below). Senior households may continue paying a $25 Senior Rate if you choose (ages 65+, no proof or verification required).
Dues are a once-a-year voluntary payment. Additional donations are always welcome. The more we raise, the greater the impact (and the more fun stuff we can do)!
TO PAY BY CHECK: Make your check payable to “MPUM” and mail it to: MPUM at P.O. Box 821733, Dallas, TX 75382 or give to one of the Board team members.
Dues and donations are not tax deductible.

Our Mission
We are a community-driven association dedicated to bringing people together.

Through our various programs, events, and volunteer opportunities, we encourage participation from all members of the community to help us achieve these shared goals.
