The President's Circle


Any donor who gives a gift of $1,000 or greater to the organization is a member of the The Presidents Circle, the agency’s donor recognition society. To express appreciation for their generosity, donors at this level are invited to a special donor recognition reception held usually in the Fall or Winter.

Since its inception, this event has been underwritten by The Robert M. Rogers Foundation, A.W. Riter, Jr. Family Foundation, Tyler Plastic Surgery, Lori & Dr. James Motlagh and most recently by Dr. & Mrs. Michael J. Klouda and Four Seasons Women's Health.

The agency established THE BENEFACTORS SOCIETY level in 2004. Donors who make annual gifts of $20,000 and above are recognized in this special donor society.

The Presidents Circle acknowledges donors at various gift levels. They include Bronze, $1,000-$1,999; Silver, $2,000-$2,999; Gold, $3,000-$4,999; Platinum, $5,000-$9,999; Diamond $10,000-$19,999.
