Foundation Enhances Donor Clubs
Michele Werner, development officer
American Psychiatric Foundation.
The American Psychiatric Foundation is unveiling a new donor club program
to honor its outstanding supporters and to offer new, enhanced benefits for
donors.
"Our new donor club program is a natural step forward for the
foundation as we seek to expand support from the APA membership," said
the foundation's president, Altha J. Stewart, M.D. "We hope to attract
new interest through this program while making sure that our present
supporters know how much we value them."
The foundation's current donor club program features the prestigious
Benjamin Rush Circle for lifetime donors of $10,000. The new program includes
the addition of the Foundation Circle to honor lifetime contributors of
$25,000 and newly named annual giving levels including the Platinum Circle
($2,500), Gold Circle ($1,000), and Silver Circle ($500).
Each donor will receive recognition in the foundation's publications and a
lapel pin. In addition, Foundation Circle, Benjamin Rush Circle, and Platinum
Circle members receive two complimentary tickets to the foundation's annual
benefit and an invitation to a special reception at APA's annual meeting. Gold
Circle members also receive an invitation to this special reception.
This year's benefit was held atop the Empire State Building during APA's
2004 annual meeting in New York City.
"Undoubtedly, the major benefit of contributing to the foundation is
knowing that your generosity will fund grants and programs educating the
public about mental illness and the availability of treatment," said
Stewart. "Our donors enable the foundation to accomplish its mission, so
our new donor club program offers much-deserved thanks and
recognition."
