Join us

The Monterey Bay Area’s military presence doesn’t sustain itself. It takes an active community — businesses, civic leaders, and engaged individuals — standing behind it.

When you join MBDA, you become part of that effort. Your membership helps fund our education efforts, relationships, and community engagement that keep Team Monterey’s 15 DoD installations visible, valued, and supported at every level of government.

Whether you’re a local business that depends on the stability the military brings, a veteran who knows firsthand what this community means, or a civic leader who wants a seat at the table — there’s a place for you here.

Membership is open to individuals, businesses, nonprofits, and local governments. Active-duty military and DoD civilians are welcome at no cost.

MBDA is a pending 501(c)(3) nonprofit — your membership and donations are tax-deductible.
