Become a PCS Member

PCS is a membership-based organization that works in partnership with our communities to ensure effective conservation of biodiversity and natural resources. So that we truly hear and understand what communities need, we take our direction directly from the people. Our membership program provides Palauans with a voice at PCS. PCS also has an allotment program with local employers. Those individuals making a minimum donation by allotment are automatically members.

PCS members have a voice in the organization and enjoy benefits. Palauan citizen members have the right to become and vote for the Board of Directors during the Annual General Membership meeting held every year on June 14. June 14 is PCS’s Anniversary and is the Nation’s “Palau Conservation Day,” mandated in 2005 by then-President Tommy E. Remengesau Jr.

Our goal is for 2% of Palau’s population to be active members of PCS (400 people). Members may be individuals, families, or Corporate Partners for Conservation.
