I think both of you have some good points. I would argue that currently,
only a subset of chapters is fully funded from fundraising revenues, and
many of the rest rely on membership fees to finance some or all of their

It would depend on the circumstances (e.g. the relationship between the
groups, their history), but in theory thematic organizations are not meant
