91±¬ÁÏ

Recognition

Thank you for your generosity and your commitment to the 91±¬ÁÏ. By giving to what you care about through the University, you’re making Washington — and the world — a better place. We thank you for your support and are pleased to recognize your kindness.

The President’s Circle

No matter how you support the 91±¬ÁÏ personally, we welcome you to The President’s Circle as an expression of our gratitude for your total gift of $2,000 or more annually. This may be accomplished through a single gift to a school or program or through a combination of gifts to various initiatives, such as medical research, athletics, the arts or all of the above. Give annually at this level to whatever means the most to you, and you will have a special place in our donor community.

Donors 35 and younger are welcomed into The Young President’s Circle for contributions totaling $500 or more in one fiscal year.

Benefactors and Laureates

Extraordinary generosity equals extraordinary impact — on the lives of 91±¬ÁÏ students, on the future of our community and on the world. The 91±¬ÁÏ honors the generosity of supporters who have made cumulative gifts and pledges totaling $100,000 and up with special recognition. 91±¬ÁÏ Benefactors and Laureates are forging a remarkable legacy. This legacy is more than a number: It is an affirmation of your belief in the potential of our students, faculty and staff who are striving every day to build a better future for us all.

Henry Suzzallo Society

The Henry Suzzallo Society honors and celebrates the alumni and friends who make a commitment to support the University through a planned gift. The 91±¬ÁÏ is pleased to acknowledge commitments made through a bequest, annuity, trust, life insurance policy or other deferred gift by recognizing these donors as members of this special society.

There is no minimum gift level, and lifetime membership for our 2,700+ members is complimentary.

Gates Volunteer Service Award

The Gates Volunteer Service Award is presented annually by the 91±¬ÁÏ and the 91±¬ÁÏ Foundation to recognize and honor individuals whose long-term contributions of time, service and philanthropy have encouraged others to support the 91±¬ÁÏ as well.

Recipients of the Gates Volunteer Service Award exemplify the highest standards of service to the 91±¬ÁÏ, modeled by the singular vision and generosity of the William H. Gates family, whose volunteer service, commitment of time and philanthropy continues to advance the work of the 91±¬ÁÏ in profound and enduring ways.
