The International Newcomers' Network does not have a membership fee. The fee for attending each meeting is RMB 50 which includes coffee, tea and pastries. It is not necessary to book in advance to attend INN meetings.

At meetings no less than three charities are represented and supported by INN activities: Bethel, Huiling and Magic Hospital. Thanks to the generosity of those attending our meetings, we were able to present a significant donation to each of these charities in 2010.
