MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS AND RENEWALS
What is a Membership?
As a member, you help support the Foundation's mission by contributing annual dues at your desired level of membership. With our thanks, you’ll receive our quarterly award-winning, members-only Physique Pictorial, the BMF Bulletin, and gift(s) according to your level of membership. You will also receive discounts on BMF's educational programs, publications, and event project fees.
What is the difference between a membership and donation?
MEMBERS receive the newly relaunched Physique Pictorial, and also receive thank-you gifts, according to their membership level. You can choose to pay annual or quarterly dues at your desired membership level, and receive one [quarterly] or four [annual] FREE issues of Physique Pictorial magazine during each period.
DONATIONS may be made singly or at multiple times throughout the year, but they do not confer membership (or membership benefits) to the donor.
Membership dues and donations are fully tax deductible. Join as a member or make a donation.
How do I renew my membership?
No need to do anything, we'll handle it. Your membership is recurring and will be renewed on the anniversary of your start date. Or send a check/credit card number to Bob Mizer Foundation, 920 Larkin Street, San Francisco CA 94109. Be sure to write “membership” on your check. Or email us at info@bobmizer.org. Thank you!
Can I renew for more than one year?
Annual memberships are renewable for just one year at a time. However, becoming a monthly donor is a convenient way to keep your membership up to date and give the Foundation a reliable source of income. If you choose to give as a monthly member, your membership does not expire until you stop payments.
How do I change my credit card information or recurring gift amount?
Please email info@bobmizer.org. We will update your request in our secure system.
How can I get back issues of Physique Pictorial magazine?
Our quarterly magazine is printed in a limited edition. The current issue and available back issues may be purchased here.

Will I receive a tax receipt for my gift?
We will mail you a receipt before January 31 after the close of the year. If you need it sooner, let us know and we'll send it after we have processed your donation or membership dues. Note: If you are a monthly donor, we will mail you just one receipt each January to reflect all of your donations received in the previous calendar year.
