The Lifetime Active Membership Program (LAMP) is approved by the TOM Inc. Board of Governors as a means of collecting membership dues from its alumni members. Instead of paying annual dues, which has become increasingly difficult to implement, an Omegan may now pay a “one-time big-time” fee to settle ALL past, present and future financial obligations to TOM (MCMLXXII), Inc.
While TOMSERVES was initially designed as a branding campaign, it was soon realized that there were more pressing issues that needed to be addressed, such as dwindling membership interest and the lack of financial resources. Before implementing the branding aspect of TOMSERVES, therefore, there is a need to re-engage alumni members with a new vision and purpose, and convince all to support, participate and contribute voluntarily in the process of re-building.
LAMP was thus launched on 13 August 2019, to address these basic membership and financial concerns. LAMP is a crucial and vital element to the success of the entire TOMSERVES campaign.
Every Omegan is encouraged to register as a Lifetime Active Member of Tau Omega Mu (MCMLXXII), Inc. with the voluntary payment of a “one-time big-time” membership fee of PhP10,000.00 (or its equivalent amount in foreign currency for overseas Omegans). In one fell swoop, the payment of the one-time fee covers ALL past, present and future dues to Tau Omega Mu (MCMLXXII), Inc.
Settling your dues thru the Lifetime Active Membership Program is one of the few ways an Omegan can do to help the alumni organization achieve its long-term goals. It reaffirms an Omegan’s love and commitment to TOM and provides resources for the implementation of its ambitious plans. It is a responsibility that every Omegan must fully abide.
All fully-paid Omegan LAMPs will have a say in TOMSERVES, Inc., the new business corporation now officially registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LAMPs will have voting rights and may run for positions in this new profit-oriented organization. In addition, LAMPs are also prioritized for business ventures and partnerships with TOMSERVES’ Inc. and can also enjoy substantial discounts with all TOMSERVES, Inc. products and merchandise.
Collected amounts will be utilized to fund TOMSERVES, Inc. authorized business activities and operational costs. An approved percentage of the funds shall also be shared with TOM (MCMLXXII), Inc. recognized districts, as the primary recipient of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) policy, and its shareholders.
