Purpose:
“AA’s far flung Twelfth
Step activities, carrying the message to the next sufferer, are the very lifeblood
of our AA adventure. Without this vital activity, we would soon become anemic;
we would literally wither and die.
“Now where do AA’s services—worldwide,
area, local—fit into our scheme of things? Why should we provide these functions
with money? The answer is simple enough. Every single AA service is designed
to make more and better Twelfth Step work possible, whether it be a group
meeting place, a central or intergroup office to arrange hospitalization and
sponsorship, or the world service Headquarters [now the General Service Office]
to maintain unity and effectiveness all over the globe.
“Though not costly, these service
agencies are absolutely essential to our continued expansion —to our survival
as a Fellowship. Their costs are a collective obligation that rests squarely
upon all of us. Our support of services actually amounts to a recognition
on our part that AA must everywhere function in full strength—and that,
under our Tradition of self-support, we are all going to foot the bill.”
