More Information: Acknowledging Your Gifts | How to Donate
Your gift to the Highlands Foundation “Changing Lives” Funding Project will help us raise $850,000 to insure individual scholarships and help create an endowment for future scholarships. We ask that you help us create this legacy so that present and future children will have the facility and services designed for their needs. We gratefully acknowledge your support, which both reinforces the success of today’s Funding Project and opens possibilities for future projects. In accordance with your wishes and donation amount, we will acknowledge your donation in one of several ways.
The Highlands Foundation recognizes the generosity of Funding Project donors in the community at large. The Foundation names its donors, without listing amounts, in “thank-you” advertisements or releases. The announcement of funding project gifts also encourages others to participate in community efforts by acknowledging generous and widespread support.
The Foundation awards permanent recognition to donors whose funding project gifts are $500 or more. Donor names are displayed prominently in a central, high-traffic area within the Foundation Office in accordance with the following schedule:
- Pace-Setting gifts $ 25,000+
- Advance gifts $ 15,000+
- Major gifts $ 5,000+
- Primary gifts $ 1,000+
- Community gifts $ 500+
The recognition system reflects the various giving levels.
The Highlands Foundation encourages donors to choose an appropriate form of recognition so that we may show our sincere gratitude for Funding Project contributions. We respect and honor the wishes of those who choose to remain anonymous.
Designated commemorative opportunities are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Prospective donors wishing to discuss a specific opportunity are invited to call Kathy Rubado at 606-889-6271.
