Welcome. We’re delighted you’re considering becoming a member.

By joining the Humanist Society you’ll become part of a growing community of people who believe we can live ethical and fulfilling lives free from religion. Together we’re building connections, reducing loneliness, supporting one another, and helping humanism become more visible across Australia.

We believe cost should never be a barrier to belonging.

Our Pay What You Can membership starts from just $2 per month, allowing you to choose a contribution that works for your circumstances.

Every new member helps grow a stronger, more connected humanist community.

A Warm Welcome

When you become a member of the Humanist Society, we want you to feel part of our community from the very beginning.

Your welcome pack, sent to every member, includes a packet of native flower seeds to plant, two postcards to keep or share, and your own Humanist Society lapel pin.

Our Society has been bringing humanists together since 1961, while the Happy Human on your pin has been an international symbol of humanism since 1965.

It’s a small symbol of a long tradition, and of the humanist movement you’re now part of.

As a member you’ll receive a welcome pack, regular updates, invitations to events, thoughtful resources, and opportunities to connect with other humanists.

Together we're making it easier for people to find a community that shares their values.
